Hey, I’m Mary.
It’s my job to make your manuscript shine.
With over a decade of editing and proofreading experience behind me, as well as a couple of traditionally-published novels under my belt, I know what a good story needs.

“I am delighted with the service I received from Mary. I sent her the first four chapters of a novel, which were in need of concise, pithy and constructive editing. This is precisely what I received, allowing me to now move on to further chapters with confidence.”
