Developmental and Line Editing
Megan Carver
Developmental Editor, Line Editor, Copy Editor and On-Page Combat Consultation
United States
Hello, nice to meet you!
My name is Megan, and when working with me, you can expect solid communication, transparency, and friendly, collaborative energy.
I have training and experience in copy editing, line editing, developmental editing, beta reading, LGBTQAI+ sensitivity reading, and proofreading.
I also have 3+ years of professional experience writing and editing website content, SEO-focused blog posts, content calendars and email campaigns.
I edit for readability, spelling errors, grammatical issues, punctuation and general flow.
Here's how I operate!
Megan Carver's "Golden Rules of Editing"
1) Edit others as you would want to be edited.
2) Point out a problem, but don't try to fix it.
3) Keep the author's voice intact.
4) Trust that the author knows what their readers want.
5) Look for consistency in characters, story, world building and arcs.
6) Always remind the author that their voice has a place in the literary world.
Please feel free to email me at [email protected] if you have any questions.
Thank you!
