Is your final draft ready? (Or almost ready?) If you’d like to book a slot in my schedule, contact me today.
Writing and editing resources
How do you edit your own writing? Which level of editing do you need? What is a style sheet? You can find the answers to these questions (and more) on the resources page.
I can now confidently start writing my next book ...
“Writing your first book is not an easy task, especially when English is not your first language. I’ve worked on mine for almost two years, [...] I tried to edit it on my own and I still wasn’t happy about it. Then I found Tori online and she’s done it within 2 weeks, but in such a way that all I had to do was to approve the awesome suggestions she’s made [...] I can now confidently start writing my next book knowing there is someone I can count on to do excellent work and save me precious time.”
—Silviu Pristavu, author of YOU and Your Own Universe
