Romance Editing and Beta Reader Matchmaking
Well hello there! I'm Rachel Daven Skinner, a freelance editor for romance novels and commercial fiction with romantic elements for publishers, self-publishing indie authors, and writers seeking to refine their manuscripts before submitting to agents or publishers. I edit American and British English, and I can help localize your writing to ensure American and British characters and settings sound authentic.
I also offer beta reader matchmaking: you tell me the exact type of beta reader or sensitivity reader you need, and I'll match you to the right reader on my team who will provide a thorough and timely critique. This highly customizable service is quickly gaining notoriety!
My experience includes editing romance novels for bestselling and award-winning authors and publishers, including the 2017 RITA nominated novel The Depth of Beauty.
I'm proud to say that 90% of my published editing clients are repeat clients, 81% of their books are ranked 4.5 stars or higher on Amazon, and 100% are ranked higher than 4 stars. Yes, really!
Am I the romance editor you've been looking for? I hope so! But you wouldn't hand your child to a stranger for babysitting, so I don't expect you to trust me with your book baby until you get to know me a little and check out my credentials.
