Personal Service
It's nice to meet you. My name's Paige. I know your manuscript holds a piece of your heart, and I promise to treat it with care. We'll have a collaborative, open relationship, rooted in mutual trust and respect. I'll help you deliver a polished manuscript that's ready for your publisher. My suggestions are just that; you have the final word. And you never have to worry about AI or privacy when I'm your editor: I don't use AI, ever. 100% human editing.
Professional Standards
I've been professionally editing since 2008. I started in marketing communications using the AP Stylebook. Now I also have expertise in The Chicago Manual of Style, and I edit both fiction and nonfiction. I hold a BA in English and creative writing and a specialized certificate in copyediting from the University of California San Diego. I am an active member of ACES, EFA, CIEP, and Editors Canada.
Passion for Style
Too few people truly love their work. I'm so lucky to have found my passion, and I get to do it every day. As a writer, you understand my enthusiasm for syntax and semantics and editing. Helping you with your manuscript is my greatest pleasure. When I'm editing something, anything, I'm having fun; when I'm not editing something, I'm subconsciously editing everything: menus, instructions, product packaging, signs.
