Some say editors and proofreaders are failed writers, but I doubt that’s true. I’m not only a writer, I’m also a top-notch editor and proofreader. I was blessed with creativity and born with an eagle eye. Why let typos, misspelled words, or grammar errors tarnish your masterpiece? Put my experience, skill, and love of the written word to work for you.

Let my no-nonsense, get-it-done approach make your job easier.
Your voice and your style are always retained while I polish your writing until it shines.
My rates are competitive, and I charge by the word according to depth of attention required. I review your document(s) or manuscript and provide an exact price—not just an estimate—before work begins. I work exclusively online (with Skype consultations as needed), and I primarily use Track Changes on MS Word. I also work with other formats such as Adobe Acrobat and OpenOffice, and I’m an expert on WordPress.
Tell me a little about your project—type, purpose, how many words or pages—and I’ll respond within 24 hours Monday-Friday.

Leah is insanely committed to the pursuit of perfection. This is what made her stand out in our organization. Her punctuality, dependability, and ability to keep you updated throughout the process are invaluable in today’s fast-moving world.
—Rushang Shah, President, Gramlee.comLeah is an amazing editor who was able to pinpoint weaknesses and give me so many amazing ideas. She went through every single word and made so many amazing suggestions and comments about the work, and I’m certain I wouldn’t have the same ebook today without her.
—Anne Samoilov, Make Room For Your RevolutionLeah is not only an amazing editor, but a fantastic person, too! She helped me edit my first solo ebook and gave me so many awesome suggestions that I would never have thought to include. Her customer service is impeccable, which to me is just as important as skill. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Leah to anyone and I’m lucky to have her on my team. The fact that she loves dogs is an added bonus!
—Neely Raffellini, The Giving Paw and The Pet EntrepreneurLeah covered every aspect of the process when editing my ebook. She is thorough, timely and explains the smallest details. With my ebook, Leah went above and beyond to have every aspect ready from the image on my website to the Kindle version to be uploaded to Amazon. The process went very smoothly and I feel fortunate to have Leah working with me on my ebook.
—Cathy Taughinbaugh, Treatment Talk
