Melanie Rigney . . . Editor for You

It's your book, not mine . . .

As a fellow writer, I respect that. As an editor, I honor your unique writer's voice, and won't change it.

It's my privilege as an editor with more than 25 years of experience to help your manuscript sing. My credentials include nearly five years as editor of Writer's Digest, the leading magazine for writers.

Learn more about my background and the services I can provide for writers, from proofreading to copy editing to manuscript evaluation. I'm also available to speak at your writers conference.

If you're seeking a traditional publisher or agent for your book, it's more important than ever that your work make a perfect first impression. Traditional publishing, especially novel publishing, has never been more competitive than it is today.

If you self-publish or work with a print-on-demand company, it's very likely you'll be the only one to read your book for typographical and grammatical errors before it's published. Your name will be on the cover; don't you want your book to read as smoothly and clearly as possible? After all, it's YOUR book.

Let me help you make it the best it can be.
