Hi All,

I know there are a few authors on here who have published, so I was hoping someone may have a good contact.

I am looking for an editor for my 110K word Sci-Fi novel. It is the first in a series of at least 3 that I have planned.

I would be interested to hear if any of you have had good or bad experiences. I think cost vs value would be important too.

Mrs Z paid to have her book edited by a pro and got some negative comments in respect to grammar on amazon after publication. I don't want to pay for someone that adds no value.

Any comments appreciated,

Z

Hi Trax,

Thanks for the advice.

If you are genuinely interested to read it, I would appreciate your opinion. Mrs Z is not interested 

I’ll get it converted to a pdf and PM you.

Kind regards,

Z

Thanks NYX.

My wife paid good money to have her book edited and it go panned by a reviewer for needing to be prof' edited. She was not at all happy, as there is no refund available.

That is the reason I asked on here in the first place, so I will follow up on that user group.

I don't mind paying, but would like to avoid being ripped off by substandard editors.

Kind regards,

Z
