I'll help you get your book out into the world...

As an indie author, you’re expected to do it all. Writing, marketing, and all the little things that come up in between. It’s a full-time job. Scratch that—it’s MORE than a full-time job! On top of figuring out the world of self-publishing, you also need to maintain a social media presence, create content, find an ARC team, and keep your readers entertained.

Oh, yeah, and actually write, edit, and revise your books.

You’re basically running a small publishing company—all on your own.

Well, until now. Now, you’ve got me in your corner.

As an editor for indie romance authors I work WITH you to support you, celebrate you, and help you publish the best story you can.

Let me take something off your plate. Give your manuscript to me, an effective editor with years of experience coaching and critiquing the written word.

I edit with kindness, carefulness, and the unshakeable belief that YOU are the only one who can tell your story.

“I cannot even explain what a breath of fresh air it was to work with Kaitlin on my latest release. I’ve had a number of experiences with other professional editors, and I’d come to dread the process as being frustrating and tedious. Kaitlin changed my entire perspective about that! She was thorough and encouraging, and most of all, she treated my work with respect. She never made me feel like she was a teacher grading a paper. Instead, she worked with me as a partner to make my manuscript the best version possible and helped me bring my vision to life. She deserves more than five stars. I’d give her a hundred if I could.” – Evangeline Williams

Do I need an editor?

I know what you’re thinking…do I really need an editor? Can’t I just revise and edit on my own and have my beta readers or ARC team point out any typos or errors?

Sure, you can do that. I mean, it’s not illegal or anything.

But, real talk?

You shouldn’t, and here’s why...

1.

You want to put out a quality product.

You’ve just spent months of your life writing your story! Why wouldn’t you want to take a little time to step away from it and let someone with fresh eyes catch things you can’t see? Hiring an editor allows your story to speak. It gives it room to breathe and develop. Together with an editor, your story can be even better than you ever imagined. Sometimes we have to get out of the way for our best writing to come to life.

2.

You’ll lose potential lifetime readers.

I know you’ve seen reviews on Goodreads lambasting a book that’s filled with typos, continuity errors, and plot holes. It stinks, but reviews from readers can sometimes make or break a book’s success OR determine whether an author builds a devoted fanbase. Give yourself the best possible shot at gaining a loyal following by always putting out quality content that has been edited by an expert.

3.

You’re a professional writer.

It doesn’t matter if you have an agent, a fancy publishing advance, or a special-edition hardcover of your book. YOU ARE A WRITER. Part of being a professional writer is putting out a professional product free from errors that pull readers out of the story. Hiring an editor allows you to do that.

“When I wrote my first novel, I was devastated when I hired an expensive proofreader who only spent three days working on my manuscript. This go around, I knew I wanted someone different and more invested in my project. When I found Kaitlin’s Instagram account, I knew she was the one. Not only does she have the most welcoming personality, but it’s evident she’s committed to every project she works on and spends time continuing her education. As a proofreader for When Wildflowers Bloom, she provided me with thorough revisions as well as in-depth feedback in the form of comments of the document. It was a complete 180 from the experience I had with my first book, and I feel so much more confident putting my story into the world. Not only do I recommend her for any project you are working on, but I also plan on hiring her for my editing for all my future books for as long as she’ll have me. 10/10!” – Ashley Manley

In the current era of never having enough hours in your day to get everything you want to get done, actually done, one of my smartest decisions was hiring Kaitlin Slowik. My only wish is that Kaitlin and her can-do attitude were cloneable—we need more Kaitlins in today’s fast-paced world.
