I specialize in first-time authors. Why you need a freelance copy editor . . . Editors, agents, and publishers want properly formatted, clean copy.
Fierce competition demands writing mechanics expertise.
An agent is not a copy editor. Documents riddled with grammatical and punctuation errors will not be read past the first two pages. Publishers no longer employ copy editors to do your job. Your query letter and sample chapters are repeatedly turned down. An objective, experienced copy editor can see the details you miss.
