I work exclusively with indie romance and fantasy authors — the ones building backlists, chasing KU reads, and serious about their craft. I know your tropes, your pacing, your readers' expectations.
"Exceptionally accurate, thoughtful, and incredibly detailed — catching things I would have never noticed."
Hazel Fattorusso — Author of Where Mother's LieYou're publishing 2–4 books a year and need an editor who can turn around a 90k manuscript quickly, accurately, and without compromising on quality. Your release schedule is non-negotiable.
You've had a bad editing experience — or you just know that your income has grown and your editor should too. You want someone invested in your author career, not just your manuscript.
The slow burn. The enemies-to-lovers arc. The world-building exposition. I know what readers expect and where manuscripts typically need the most work. No genre-blind feedback.
My best client relationships span entire series. I learn your voice, your world, your readers — and that makes every subsequent book better and faster to edit.
A thorough, line-by-line edit for grammar, punctuation, consistency, pacing, voice, and readability — while keeping your style completely intact. Built for indie fiction authors who publish regularly.
A high-level read of your manuscript to identify structural, tonal, and pacing issues before we invest in a full copy-edit. Think of it as a diagnostic — making sure we're polishing the right things.
Final-stage error correction before publication. For manuscripts that have already been copy-edited and just need a clean, professional final pass before going live.
Editing all books in a series (3+ books) under a single agreement. I learn your world deeply and provide consistency across the entire series — characters, lore, timeline, and tone.
A 20-minute call to discuss your manuscript, your goals, and your timeline. No pitch, no pressure — just an honest conversation.
I edit the first 1,000 words of your manuscript for free so you can see my style before committing.
Thorough copy-editing with inline comments and an editorial letter. Delivered on the agreed date, always.
A follow-up session to answer your questions and make sure you're confident before publishing.
Charlotte was excellent! She delivered the edits on my romance novel exactly on time, and provided great specific feedback along with bigger picture items that were extremely helpful. Would definitely hire her again.
I had the pleasure of working with Charlotte as the copy editor for my novel, and I honestly couldn't recommend her highly enough. She was amazing to work with — exceptionally accurate, thoughtful, and incredibly detailed. Charlotte went above and beyond at every stage, catching things I would have never noticed and elevating the overall quality of my manuscript. Her care, precision, and deep understanding of the material truly showed in her work.
I'm truly enjoying reading through it. I wanted to tell you how impressed I am with your feel for language. Your suggestions are thoughtful, and the lines you added to clarify certain moments are beautiful.
I'm Charlotte Mitchell — a copy editor specialising in romance and fantasy fiction for indie authors. I don't work across every genre. I chose two, went deep, and stayed there.
That focus means I understand the tropes your readers love, the pacing conventions that keep pages turning, and the moments where indie manuscripts most commonly need work. I know the difference between a slow burn and a story that's just slow.
I work with authors who are building careers, not just publishing once. If you're on Kindle Unlimited, releasing regularly, and ready to invest in editing that matches your ambition — that's who I built this service for.
