Writing is hard. Let me help you!
You nurture and build upon an idea. Over time you develop your book, article, report, etc. and your vision takes shape. At this point you may wonder, “Does this all make sense?” “Did I make an embarrassing mistake somewhere?”
This is where I come in. I’m an editor for publishers and independent authors. I have a particular love for fantasy and creative nonfiction, but I work in other genres as well. I’ll help you clean up any errors in punctuation, spelling, grammar, and syntax. I can also help you ensure that your text is logically consistent and contains no continuity errors. I used to be an attorney, so I know all about finding inconsistencies!

"I had the pleasure of working with Mr. Whiten in his capacity as a copy editor. The project--an anthology containing multiple genres, colloquialisms, and forms--could have been challenging in less capable hands. It’s not easy to edit without EDITORIALIZING. He brought a light-but-firm hand to the anthology, cleaning up typos, grammar, and style issues, while ensuring that all nonconventional language choices were intentional, not accidental. His work was thorough, punctual (and flexible!). Wonderful to collaborate with. It won’t be my last book; I hope to call upon him again someday!”
