Authors Writing a Manuscript Draft
You need support with the development of your manuscript.
You've started writing your book, but you know it needs more work. You're not sure how to lift it to the next level.
You need feedback about the characters, plot, conflict and other story elements, and help to improve the clarity, flow and effectiveness of your writing. I can identify where to focus your effort, and guide you through the process.
Authors With a Completed, Unpolished Draft
You need an editor and a proofreader.
Your manuscript is almost ready to publish. You need a final edit and proofread to make sure that it is error-free and the language flows. I'll meticulously check your document for errors, and copy edit your sentences so that you can be confident your manuscript is professionally presented and is a pleasure to read.

What these Authors Say about Me
Tom E. Moffatt
Author of Barking Mad
Dante & Ceaira Cassleman
Home Buyer
"I highly recommend The Story Polisher. My manuscript had been through several edits and proofreads, and despite being quietly confident that there were no mistakes, I thought I’d get one more pair of eyes to go over it. And I’m so glad I did! The Story Polisher found four or five glaring errors that were missed by other professionals, as well as far too many inconsistencies and formatting issues. She finished the whole job within 48-hours, her communication was exceptional and the price very reasonable. I will certainly be getting all my manuscripts polished from now on."

"I recommend having your manuscript brought to life by Vicki. Her thoughtful suggestions will enhance your literary work. She is a skilled and accurate proof reader: thorough, meticulous and efficient. You'll find her to be knowledgeable, reliable, and encouraging. Her support, and contributions to the Rotorua Writers Group have been valuable, and appreciated by our members."
Mollie Smith
Author
"I've had Vicki critique some of my writing. Her feedback has always been spot-on, she's caught all kinds of mistakes, and offered suggestions on pacing, tension, and character development -- and better still, she offered honest feedback in a way that left me feeling energised and ready to tackle those edits. I love working with her. I was fortunate enough to work with Vicki on formatting an anthology for a local writers group. Her professionalism in making sure that their ebook was formatted correctly was second-to-none. She offered suggestions, listened to feedback, and made sure that the manuscript shined and was free of any errors. Can't recommend her enough."
