About

I love the English language! Most of all I enjoy helping others to make their writing accurate, readable, and a little spunky (if you're into that sort of thing). I have a bachelor's degree in Creative Writing and 3 years of experience working as a Communications Assistant for an international non-profit. I offer proofreading, beta reading, developmental editing, and in-depth copy editing for a variety of genres. I've worked on manuscripts from fantasy to memoir to self-help to mystery. I'm efficient and motivated! I'm looking forward to working with you and fulfilling all your editing needs.

She is great to work with. My script after her edits read so much better. She's punctual, and very fairly priced. A great value. I'm definitely using her again for future projects.

My highest recommendation! After an extensive editor search I found Alyssa, who was a breath of fresh air. She was approachable, knowledgeable, personable, empathetic, responsive, creative and made the process fun. She embodied positivity. Alyssa has a rare ability to coach, critique and improve your writing while making you feel good throughout the process. She brought my manuscript to life! Alyssa is simply outstanding!
