Sorry this pro can’t do your job, but we know other pros who can.
Introduction: My editing skills, and my approach to written work that needs editing, are built on many years of working for newspapers. The news had to be accurate, clear, cohesive, whether it was about a high school volleyball tournament, or a public meeting, or crime, or features. My approach to editing fiction and nonfiction comes from that experience, and my strong belief that anyone can write! I love to take a writer's best work, regardless whether it is a rough draft or a manuscript nearly ready to submit for publication, and making that work shine! I am a very good cheerleader and coach for my writers and, for the most part, good friendships have been built during the editing process.
