I’ll raise your book up, not put it down, and then together, we’ll make it unputdownable.

You’ve done it!

You’ve written a book. Congratulations!

You’ve slaved for hours, days, even years to get your hard work to where it’s at now.

But you know it’s not right. It’s not there yet.

Which means you need an editor.

And that’s where I come in.

With over twenty years of experience in publishing, I can help you fix those annoying little plot holes, help you tame those tangled tenses, and turn your book into a novel you can feel truly proud of.

Why me?

Because I know how it feels.

I’m an author myself, so I understand the process, and the pain, of pulling each sentence and chapter apart, only to put it back together again – usually in a different order.

I know how it feels to have written that killer line, only to have to remove it, because the rest of the plot doesn’t flow well around it.

It’s not easy – I get that.

Handing over your manuscript feels a little like handing over your child on their first day of school. You want to know it’ll be loved and cherished, cultivated and nurtured.

That’s exactly what I offer.

I want your book to be the best it can be, and I’ll devote myself to giving you just that.

WSL provides authors with a range of pre-publication services.

WSL accepts books that fit into specific genres, read the section for more details.

Horses for Courses

I firmly believe in doing what you know best, which is why I stick to the genres I truly understand.

This means I don’t accept non-fiction, horror, science-fiction, fantasy, young adult or children’s books. I particularly specialise in romance (of all spice levels), crime, women’s literature, and historical fiction.

The Full Monty

As well as editorial services and proofreading, I also offer blurb writing, and internal formatting for e-books and paperbacks, which takes away a lot of the headaches for self-published writers.

WSL does not use any AI tools to perform her work.

Artificial (Intelligence)

I think it’s important to say, right from the start, that I’m a human being. I drink coffee, eat cake and indulge in far too much chocolate.

We live in a world where the use of AI is becoming more frequent, and I feel it’s important to be upfront about its usage – or lack of. I’ll never use generative AI to edit, produce your blurb, or format your book. This means it will be me, scratching my head over that errant comma, and not an AI tool.

Final Word…

I look forward to working with you.
