Maria ChanceI live and breathe books- I read them, I write them, and I also edit them. For me, stories are magic. They're where imagination and connection meet-it's that ethereral plane where minds can see each other free of physical constraints. I can't imaginea life without them. I can only describe becoming an editor like fate fullfilling itself. No work I've done before has felt more fitting and right.I've honed my craft through certifications in proofreading, copyediting, line editing, and developmental editing, with training from Edit Republic and UCLA Extension. This solid foundation allows me to tailor my editing approach to suit your manuscript's unique needs, whether it's polishing your prose, enhancing your story's structure, or offering guidance that helps your voice shine.
