Book Editing for Historical Fiction
Hi, I’m Shauna, historical fiction book editor.
You’ve put a lot of time and effort into writing your novel, you don’t want ‘one size fits all’ advice. You need someone who will tailor their advice to your book and your goals. I offer personalized feedback that’s encouraging and honest for authors who want to craft compelling stories that capture the hearts’ of their readers.
There are many great ways to build your writing skills including books, classes, and critique groups. But there is nothing like putting the advice and feedback you get into action. Figuring out just how to do that can be challenging and that’s where I come in. I love helping writers unearth the potential in their work while also improving their writing skills.
Working with me should feel like a personalized masterclass in writing. My aim is to improve not just the manuscript I am editing but provide you with the knowledge and tools to write better in the future. I offer a range of services to help you grow as a writer and create stories that appeal to historical fiction fans.
“I’ve just done a quick read-through of your comments and can see that they will be extremely useful during the revision. I can’t wait to get to work on it, but will let the ideas percolate as you suggest. I really appreciate your approach to this work. You manage to balance criticism with encouragement and are so thorough. I feel like you “get” my characters. I also appreciate your adherence to the timeline you set out and how you manage authors’ expectations of the type of feedback you provide. ”
