So, you’re looking for an editor…
If you’re looking for writing or editing help, stick around. Before I tell you about me, there are a few things you should know:
- I do provide sample edits and free consultations
- I do offer payment plans and other ways to reduce fees if you’re on a tight budget.
- I do offer rush service if requested in advance.
- I do accept LGBTQI, ethnic/urban, and highly sensitive projects
- I do reject obscene and hateful material
- I don’t offer beta reading
- I don’t ghostwrite books
- I don’t design book covers or do printing
- I don’t write essays
That’s covered. Now, about me…
My name is Kim-Lee Patterson, and I founded Your Writing Lady in 2014 after freelancing for 3 years. Since then, I have edited nearly 40 books, over 300 resumes, and countless other documents. I have also authored five books and am now pursuing a Bachelor of Communication Studies from York University. Previously, I earned diplomas in Accounting & Payroll, Web Design, and Organizational Behavior. Writing is my #1 passion, but I also enjoy arts and crafts like crochet, painting, and interior decorating and I dabble in pseudosciences such as astrology, reflexology, and the MBTI.
So, now that we’ve covered my background and experience, let’s move on to how I can make your day!
