About


Hi! I’m Amelia, an editor with expertise in historical romance, historical fiction, erotica, and related genres. It is my aim to ensure your voice remains engaging and unique within a text that hooks readers: I believe in a professional relationship that is balanced and respectful, leading to a stronger end result. I work to the quality and ethical standards of the EFA and CIEP, so you can rest assured you will be treated with courtesy as your words are treated with care and precision.

I endeavor to reply within 48 hours to all new queries. Things can get lost or buried. Thanks for your understanding… please resend your message if you don’t hear from me within that time.


Who Needs An Editor?

The short answer is: everyone. Even an editor! (Sorry, editors.) Everyone’s writing process is unique, but what isn't unique is needing feedback. Whether you want a new perspective on an idea that’s slow to start, or comprehensive editorial notes on a first draft, an editor can give you a vital new perspective on your words or project. I’ve worked with first-time authors, USA Today bestsellers, academics, independent scholars, and producers. I can meet you where you’re at and help you achieve your goals.

Rates and Particulars

Send me a note for rates as well as descriptions of what each service entails! I take a tailored approach to each project and can bundle different options for you. I can offer a sliding scale or staggered payment plans if needed.

For new clients, I ask that you submit two to three sample pages so that accurate estimates can be made. If you wish to hire me to do research only, a synopsis or explanation of your research area is fine. If you require fact-checking, I’d prefer the entire manuscript. For short stories or novellas, a 500-800 word excerpt works as a sample. An assessment is included in all rates.
