EDITING

When I grow up I want to be an editor!

Bet you haven't heard that one before, huh?

I found a love for words and grammar at a youngish age. I love to hear the music of a properly edited novel, and when something's not ringing the right not, I go a little crazy trying to fix it. I'm a supreme perfectionist, and this helps me edit my own and my friend's works. I'm also a little OCD...an unfortunate side effect of my perfectionism.

As a result of this love of words and grammar, my inordinate perfectionism, and my experience with book writing, I am focusing on being an editor as my career choice. This means that, since I am nineteen years old and not getting any younger, soon I will be setting up a professional business page offering my editing services for payment.

However, for now, I'd love to help you out. If you have any sort of creative writing that needs a serious grammar lesson, overall polishing, or simply a second opinion, I'd be more than happy to offer my help to you! All you have to do is shoot me an email asking me for help (including the specific nature of the kind of editing help you want and how long your "submission" is) at acrossbooks@gmail.com. You could also tweet me at @anacrossbooks or message my Pinterest at @anastasiacross too. Not only would I hopefully provide some help to you, but I'd also gain experience editing. The more practice the better!

Hope I can help someone out soon!
