Feedback without fear.

Whether you’ve never written a book before or you’re on your 20th manuscript, all it can take is one comment to send you on an impostor syndrome-fueled anxiety spiral. My job is to make sure that spiral doesn’t happen.

With editing processes tailored to your specific needs, I provide as much — or as little — comfort as you need through solutions, compliments, additional research, and teaching, in the feedback process that you’re looking for.

what my clients are saying:

  • “Nicole is a great editor and I highly recommend working with her. She provided extremely insightful, thoughtful and helpful feedback on my manuscript in a very timely manner. Nicole was able to pinpoint specific areas where my work needed tweaking and then offered several suggestions on how to approach working it out. Not only was she professional but she was also encouraging and friendly, while also managing to look at my work with a critical eye. She makes herself available if you have questions about her feedback as well. If you want an editor who will give you the utmost value, quality, and respect for you work, then Nicole is perfect for you.”

  • “Working with Nicole for my first novel has been an absolute delight! She has been just as enthusiastic about my work as I am and very helpful with the flow of my ideas and character/world building. She has also answered any of my questions and emails in a timely fashion. 10/10 would recommend her for your editing needs and will be working with her on all my upcoming projects”

    Alison Tuite

  • "Nicole is a wonderful editor. Had I never hired her, I would still be pulling my hair out trying to figure out how to improve my manuscript. Her feedback was far beyond what I expected. She gave me much more than just an overall summary of my novel, she gave careful feedback throughout. Grammar, spelling, characters, pacing, plot, voice – anywhere my manuscript could use improvement, she showed me. All this was skillfully done in a way that did not replace or change my voice. I highly recommend her services.”

    Karen Wirtz

  • “Nicole’s editing skills are top notch. She’s able to point out inconsistencies and errors that I was unable to detect, and in my experience, she’s been spot on. It’s really a breath of fresh air to work with someone who understands the inner workings of a novel: plot, structure, pacing, character development. I recommend her services to anyone looking for a reliable, honest, and informed editor!”

    Heidi Oran

  • "Nicole is a light-handed but extremely precise editor. My query letter and synopsis compliment each other better after I took her suggestions, and now they both really shine. She was enthusiastic and encouraging about my manuscript but also ready with some valid critiques and suggestions. I am so glad to have had Nicole’s help with my book, and I’d definitely use her services again!”

    Christi Silver

  • “Nicole’s editing was far beyond what I could have imagined. She broke down the elements of my book with a clarity and precision. Her positive feedback and constructive suggestions took my ideas to the next level. I believe with her help my story and characters will achieve everything I could hope for. If you want to take your work from the silver medal to the gold Nicole is the right editor for you.Maybe a bit cheesy but I really feel like Nicole shown a light on the hidden dark spots that I knew were there but couldn’t see.”

    Ann Jensen

  • “Nicole was a pleasure to work with and provided meaningful and insightful feedback. She truly has a gift. Her edits allowed me to dive into parts of my manuscript that weren’t working and develop a more cohesive arch. Nicole offered practical advice on how I might go about fixing scenes and answering questions the reader would undoubtedly have. Her feedback was incredibly detailed and pragmatic with the right amount of “tough love.” I would highly recommend her services.”

    Kristie Colon

  • “Nicole’s thoughtful critique of my query and manuscript helped me tighten up some of the weak areas and flesh out the flat spots. Her suggestions were precise and helped me reframe and rethink some of the issues. As a result of Nicole’s careful reading, I feel my finished product is polished and ready for submission. She was very prompt and professional and I would definitely use her again!”
