My editing work includes, and is informed by, these values. If you share these values, we may be a good fit.
“Erin’s keen mind and effective approach to editing a manuscript is very impressive. She always gives a sound critique and useful suggestions. At the same time, she respects cultural differences and encourages the writer to maintain that integrity so the prose retains its uniqueness. Her sense of humor while critiquing work is great. The writer never feels put down or embarrassed.”
