Editors/Proofreaders

A good editor is one of the most important people you can choose to work on your project. They will work closely with you, so you should feel comfortable in the working relationship. Editors generally specialize in certain genres, so ask around if you need help connecting with the editor that's right for you. (And no matter who edits your book, be sure to hire a good proofreader, too!) The editors listed here are members of SLPA. They do attend our meetings when their schedules permit. Feel free to contact them directly any time to discuss your project. They will be happy to answer questions or provide an estimate.
