Testimonial from John Locke, author, Now & Then:

It is huge news for all authors, whether established, indie or aspiring—that Winslow Eliot accepts manuscripts for editing! I am one of the lucky ones who got in on the ground floor, so to speak, as Winslow has edited two of my books, Lethal Experiment and Now & Then. Just so you know, I couldn’t be more pleased with the results!

In my experience, there are two types of editors. While both seek out errors, inconsistencies and punctuation issues, only the second type will take a personal interest in your work in order to help you become a better author. This is the type of editor Winslow Eliot is, and no one will go the extra mile to help you like she will.

To be sure, there are lots of great editors out there, and I have worked with four excellent ones. What makes Winslow the best in my experience is her ability to help me improve my writing while allowing me to preserve my identity as an author. In other words, she “gets” what I’m trying to do, and doesn’t try to change my style. My experience with other editors was frustrating because they wanted me to write like everyone else. I don’t want to write like everyone else, I just want to be the best “me” I can be. Winslow doesn’t believe that all writers have to fit a certain mold or conform to a certain cookie-cutter style. She celebrates the elements that make your writing style unique and shows you how to enhance them.

You’re in for a treat. Winslow will take you on an editing adventure! Her margin comments are legendary! She encourages you to be better, never talks down to you, and keeps her eye on the goal, to help you complete the best manuscript possible.

In addition to all this, Winslow’s pricing schedule is incredibly affordable. I paid one editor FOUR times as much and got half the quality, and that’s the truth.
