About Us

 

ARTFUL EDITOR is a book editing company founded in 2010 by Naomi Kim Eagleson and based in Los Angeles, California. We help authors improve and polish their manuscripts, both fiction and nonfiction, for publication. Whether you're self-publishing or submitting your book to agents and publishers, we'll guide you every step of the way until your book gets into print. We also edit for traditional and hybrid publishers.

When you send us your manuscript, we’ll assess the editing service it needs, then assign your project to an editor on our team. If your book would benefit from several rounds of editing, each round might be done by a different editor. We've learned from our years of experience in publishing that this “team approach” ensures the highest quality book possible.

Our editorial team is comprised of developmental editors, line editors, copyeditors, proofreaders, book coaches, and ghostwriters. We’ve edited in-house or freelanced for the Big Five publishers in New York, as well as for university presses and small presses. Many of us are also authors and creative writing instructors, and several of us have worked or interned at literary agencies. We have specialists in most genres of fiction and nonfiction.

We typically schedule projects one to two months in advance, so reserve your editor today!
