If you've got a manuscript, I've got a pen! Developmental, line, and copy editing for writers chasing self-publishing or traditional publishing alike.
Let's get started!
I've spent the past eight years using The Chicago Manual of Style to transform novels into masterpieces. While I started out as just a developmental editor, I've grown to offer line editing, copy editing, and book coaching services as well. My novel editing service specializes in LGBT+ fiction and developmental editing, but I've worked with just about everything!
Every book has a chance to succeed, and whether you're looking to self-publish or chase a New York publishing house, I'm here to help.
From a first read to a final polish — pick the help your manuscript needs.
The highest level of editing I do. I'll read your manuscript again and again until I know every side character, character arc, and plot thread — then help you turn lifeless characters into living ones, refine your voice, streamline your plot, and dig out your story's deeper themes. A necessary step for every book.
Confident in your plot and characters but nervous about your prose? I'll adapt your work to The Chicago Manual of Style while bringing your unique literary voice to life. Prose is harder to perfect than people think — I'll help you make your book as smooth as butter.
Sometimes a manuscript just needs a bit of love. Send it over and I'll burn through it in a few weeks. Even after beta-readers, you'd be surprised how many mistakes slip through the cracks. Hiring a copy editor is essential to polish your work to a mirror finish.
If you're feeling lost, don't worry. As your personal book coach I'll guide you every step of the way. Together we'll make sure your novel is the best it can be before you even start writing it. With my guidance, you won't have to work alone.
Your book is precious to you, so it's precious to me! From developmental editing to line editing to copy editing, the Full Bundle works every line of your book until it shines. Take your masterpiece from good to great.

I am very happy with my developmental edit from Novelty Editing. Ellie was professional from our very first contact until completion of the project. She read my novel with a keen eye and made many helpful suggestions that have made my novel much stronger. I will continue to use her services in the future and would recommend her to any writer.Debbie Schrack Author
I am BLOWN AWAY by your work. WOW! You made me realize so much that I hadn't even thought of! I have been compiling my China memories over the past year, and writing has been such a lonely process. To have this experience with you made me feel less alone.Glen Loveland Author
Ellie was kind and prompt to respond. She helped me figure out what I wanted and then gave helpful feedback whenever I asked, and I'd recommend her services for anybody who wants perfection for a modest price.Rihaana Stark Author
Ellie delivered my manuscript back to me in less than a month, and that's saying something, because my manuscript was about 200,000 words! This is an awesome service for the price, and I'm seriously happy with how everything has turned out!Joss Richards Author
