Editing
No matter what you write—books, blog posts, articles, web pages, marketing materials—an editor is an invaluable part of your publishing process.
I’ll help you inspire your readers by offering a full range of services from developmental suggestions to content and copy editing.
Self-Publishing Coaching
You’ve spent your time and energy on the creation of the manuscript. The editor has returned it, and you’ve made final revisions. That alone was time-consuming and joyful work.
Now it’s time for the last step—publishing and promoting your book. You don’t have to figure it out yourself.
Promotional Writing
Sometimes the last bit of copywriting feels overwhelming.
Let me help you with the final promotional materials to get your book launched. I’ll skillfully craft back cover copy, author bios, web copy, lead magnets, or other any other promotional materials you need.
I had written my first book and had no idea what to do next. Thankfully I was blessed to be introduced to Amy. My book is about leadership and, at its core, Care and Service. I could not have been happier with Amy’s embodiment of both of those values.
She showed genuine care for my project and me, and the service was professional, patient, efficient, and thoughtful. Amy not only offered content editing and formatting, she even handled the technical aspects of uploading my book to Amazon, including determining categories, keywords and handling the details of my author bio. She is awesome!
I have worked with many exceptional editors in publishing and ministry careers, but Amy is the very best. She is a superb copy and content editor. She provides a detailed plan for her editing, clearly outlining her commitments and timelines for completing her work. Amy exceeded my expectations and delivered her commitments earlier than expected.
Amy challenged me to be a better writer and encouraged me to enjoy the journey. She left positive comments and motivational thoughts along with her edits. I am a better writer because of her excellent work.
I highly recommend her as a professional editor and a great encourager for aspiring authors.
