Editing Services by Ellie

Expert editing to enhance your manuscript and storytelling skills.

Beta Reading

Receive insightful feedback on your draft to improve narrative flow and character development.

Allow your work to reach the next stage by running it past an experienced editor. Beta editing allows for errors to be spotted and corrected quickly, allowing more time for you to enjoy the process of writing and completing your written work.

Developmental Editing

Comprehensive editorial support for your manuscript, essay, or article.

Focusing on all written elements of your piece, from pacing, plot, accuracy and character development, right down to the spelling and grammar elements. A reassuring final polish before pressing 'send' to those publishers, or a complete re-write of your text if something isn't quite right.

Ghost Writing was how I started my writing career.

I wrote a series of books for an international company a year before I started writing my own. It tickles me to think that my work will be enjoyed all over Asia without ever realizing it was me. Ghost Writing is a brilliant choice for anyone who needs a bit more confidence to write on their own, or who needs someone to overhaul their work to make it a certain standard. It is also an option for someone who may not be able to write for a variety of reasons but who would like their memories to be recorded forever.

A Ghost Writer will typically write an entire novel or piece of written work for a client, such as a speech, which will be exchanged for the copyright. In this way, you could have your very own book written for you by a professional. My aim for offering this service is to enable people, on a co-writing basis, or dictation-style.

Ghost Writing and Personal Memoir

Don't know where to start with writing your own novel, novella, poetry chapbook or submission?

Whether it's a dream you have of writing your first book, a one-time submission to a writing competition, or a personal memoir, a mentor can help take you through the process of writing, from beginning to end.

You will receive a mentor with top tips and pitfalls of self-publishing your work and all the steps you will need to take to get there. It's easier than you think to get your work out into the world.

With regular check-ins and your option of connecting via email, video call or telephone, we can find the solutions to your writing problems.

This service is also offered for those who are at the end of their writing journey and are in need of a bit of guidance for their next steps in publishing.
