About Me
Hello! I’m Caitlyn, a new book editor with a passion for storytelling and a keen eye for detail. As a lifelong reader and lover of literature, I believe that every story has the potential to captivate, inspire, and resonate with readers. My mission is to help authors refine their narratives and achieve their creative visions.
Having recently completed my certificate in editing, I am excited to bring my fresh perspective and enthusiasm to the editing process. I have a strong foundation in proofreading, developmental editing, and I am eager to learn and grow within this dynamic industry.
I understand the importance of collaboration and communication in the editing journey. My approach is supportive and constructive, focusing on enhancing your unique voice while providing valuable feedback on structure, pacing, and clarity. I’m here to help you polish your manuscript and ensure it shines for its intended audience.
When I’m not editing, you can find me reading, running, or learning more about editing.
I’m excited to connect with writers and contribute to the literary community. Let’s bring your story to life together!

Developmental Edits
I work closely with you during the early stages of your manuscript, focusing on overall structure, character development, pacing, and thematic elements. This stage is all about shaping your story and ensuring that it aligns with your vision while engaging your target audience.
Line Edits
Line editing focuses on enhancing your writing at the sentence level. I refine clarity, ensuring that each idea is expressed with precision and impact. This includes adjusting awkward phrasing, improving word choice, and maintaining your unique voice. I also assess the flow and pacing, making sure your prose reads smoothly and keeps readers engaged.
Copy Edits
In this phase, I dive into the details of your manuscript, checking for grammar, punctuation, spelling, and style consistency. My aim is to ensure that your book is consistent throughout its own world and makes sense. This includes character's names are spelled the same throughout, descriptions are consistent, etc.
Proofreading
Before your book heads to publication, I conduct a final check for any remaining errors or inconsistencies. This meticulous review helps catch those last-minute details, ensuring your manuscript is polished and ready for readers. Copyediting looks for consistency IN the story, proofreading looks for consistency ON the page.
