My experience working as a freelancer on Reedsy
It all begins with an idea.
As a freelance fiction editor, one of the things I love most about my job is the variety. Every project brings something new to the table, and working with Reedsy has been a fantastic way to experience that variety. The platform has connected me with so many talented authors, and it's been a pleasure to work on such a wide range of stories—from sapphic vampire fiction to ancient Egyptian thrillers, and even a literary coming-of-age retelling of Don Quixote.
One of the best things about Reedsy is how easy it makes the whole process. The platform connects me with authors, and everything—communication, document sharing, deadlines—is all neatly organized in one place. This means I can focus on what I do best: helping authors shape their work into something amazing.
The diversity of projects I’ve worked on through Reedsy is really what makes it stand out. I’ve had the chance to work with so many talented and exciting authors, who pushed me to think carefully about pacing, character arcs, and creating emotional depth, to dive into research and ensure factual/historical details were spot on, and get into the nitty-gritty of character development and narrative voice.
Each project brings its own set of challenges, but that’s what keeps editing exciting. There’s never a dull moment, and I’m constantly learning something new from the authors I work with. The opportunity to help authors polish their work and bring their stories to life is incredibly rewarding.
Working with Reedsy has been an amazing experience. The platform makes it so easy to connect with writers, and I’m always excited to see what unique stories come my way next.
