Erika Steeves

Editor | Writer | Creative

I help writers and creatives publish their best and most meaningful work. I specialize in copyediting and proofreading of fiction, especially speculative genres, and big idea nonfiction.

Whether it's your debut novel, a book for your purpose-driven business, or a collection of short stories or essays, you have a story to tell, and your story matters. My eagle-eye attention to detail and passion for editing will help you publish your best work.

Benefits of hiring an editor

Consistency​

​I pay attention to the details so that your book is as refined and professional as possible.
​

Clarity​

​I make sure your writing keeps readers immersed in the story instead of distracted by errors.

Correctness​

​A fresh pair of eyes will help catch typos and consistency errors that you can't see.
