Affordable editing for authors by an author
Hi, I'm Alexis (Lexi), a 22-year-old freelance editor from the United States.
I'm a recent college graduate with dual bachelor's degrees in English and Creative Writing, as well as dual associate's degrees in Liberal Arts and Psychology. Upon graduating from Arkansas Tech University in May of 2025, I launched my freelance editing business. Since then, I have provided two sample edits, a full copy/line edit, and beta readings. I offer copy and line editing, developmental editing, proofreading, and alpha/beta reading services.
With over 10 years of writing experience, I know how much of ourselves we put into our work, and I'm committed to helping other writers succeed. I am currently writing my first novel, and I have work forthcoming in the Fall 2025 issue of Bridge: the Bluffton University Literary Journal.
I may be new to the industry, but I am no stranger to the craft.
Work Terms
For editing/proofreading services, I require access to your manuscript in either Word document or Google Doc format with editing and commenting permissions. I like to make in-line comments for line editing and developmental editing suggestions, but I will correct grammar, punctuation, and spelling with the "track changes" feature if preferred. For alpha/beta reading services, I accept PDF, eBook, or Word/Google Doc formats. Although if you would like in-line reactionary comments, I will need access to a document with commenting permissions. I am, of course, open to signing NDAs or any other confidentiality agreements regardless of the type of services I provide.
Since my fees are based on word count, I would prefer fixed-price contracts.
In terms of working hours, I do my best work at night, but I am available for communication during the day.
