I'm an amateur editor, and I'm looking to gain more editing experience. My hope is to gain a positive customer testimonial (should I earn it) in exchange for a complete editing of your short story.
I have edited for one independent book, another as yet unpublished, edited content for a charity blog, I run a blog at www.wordtrance.com, I stay active in writing critique groups, I studied English Literature, and I have been writing and editing fiction for 10+ years. I specialize in genre fiction (fantasy, sci-fi, horror, speculative, etc.), doing copy editing, line editing, and general manuscript evaluation, but I also do developmental editing.
Not sure? Well, you have nothing to lose, and I can provide a free sample edit of up to 1500 words so you can see why you should use me. Just email your sample to michael@wordtrance.com and we will take it from there. If you don't have a sample ready, feel free to email me anyway if you would like to begin discussing a project.
Looking forward to hearing from you,
Michael
