L Talbott Editorial and Publishing Consulting Svcs

Introduction: "The editing was top notch!" "The Last Rhino", First Place Children's Animals/First Place Children's 6-8. Feathered Quill Awards, 2019 Published author, editor, formerly with major traditional publisher in Editorial. Please refer to award-winning novels by Elizabeth Cain, Peni Jo Renner, and the acclaimed "Kisses from Sardinia" by Laurie Pilia. I specialize in developmental editing for first-time authors as well as seasoned professionals. Along with all levels of professional editing for fiction and non-fiction, I can also offer guidance in contemporary publishing. I am honest about your writing and will put your interests before mine. Ghostwriting available. Can also quote smaller academic projects. I prefer to see samples of your work before I give an estimate, so that I can be sure to offer the best prescription for your writing success. If this is your first time writing or publishing, your naivete is a breeding ground for opportunists. I've re-edited many manuscripts, and I can save you from that fate. If you only have an "idea" for a book, please be prepared for the cost of ghostwriting, which is substantial. If you are a fiction writer, please be prepared for your work to need more than simple line editing, if you desire that it be competitive in the current market. Thank you.
