Many writers feel that editing their book is a task they can undertake themselves. The impression comes from an understanding that editing is merely proofreading or rudimentary copy editing at best.

Strangely, our eye tends to miss our own glitches. Enter therefore – the editor, who plays devil’s advocate, but for the best cause – a better story.

 

Experienced copy editors and developmental editors can take a raw manuscript and turn it into a polished final product. As an author and translator, I have always felt immensely grateful to my editors. A good editor can buff up a manuscript until the story shines through, and I have been very fortunate to work with exceptional editors for my three books.

As a translator and a baffled user of automated translation, I advocate the importance of context, nuance, and sharpness over an AI generated work, and therefore, that is what I provide as a service. Write Right comes from the intent to help our clients write their best book, and to ensure the final edited product achieves what the book had originally set out to achieve.
