TESTIMONIALS
What clients say about my work
Melissa-Jane copy-edited my fiction manuscript. She was thorough and helped me see things I couldn’t. She also communicated with me every step of the way and took the time to get to know my writing goals. Her editing and feedback gave me the encouragement to start submitting my manuscript. I know there are no guarantees but you’ve got to be in it to win it!
Lee-Ann Khoh, Author
I heavily rely on Melissa’s editing and proofreading abilities to perfect my work and ensure it is client-worthy. Melissa is highly adept in making editorial suggestions related to structure, style and writing, can easily identify and correct errors (grammatical, structural, informational) and ensures each document I send to her is polished and professional.
Natalie Sutherland, Copywriter
Melissa-Jane was solid and insightful with her edits, suggestions, and corrections. She knew where I was going and guided me there without taking away from my voice or vision. Her grammar and punctuation points were on point, and her suggestions for character and plot development were based on what was best for the story as a whole.
