USA Today Bestselling author of over 25 books on Amazon

I wrote my first novel at age 12, and I have 20 years of experience in writing and publishing. I’m a full-time USA Today bestselling author of 30+ books (search Ashley Emma on Amazon), and I work full-time here on Fiverr. I publish, edit, and market books in almost any genre. I do NOT use AI for editing/proofreading clients’ books (though I’m happy to work on your book if you wrote it with AI), and I leave lots of feedback. My passion is to help writers become authors and publish books they are proud of. I live in Maine, USA with my husband and 6 children. Let’s make your dream happen!!

The Essence: An Anglorian Story

I edited this client’s book and left a large amount of feedback on how to improve the story. He implemented all my suggestions and made the new rewrites, then hired me again to proofread the book. He wrote in his review, “I was so impressed with Ashley’s comments and edits the first time I set my manuscript, I incorporated nearly all of it then hired here AGAIN to look at it. She approached this more as a collaborator than a proof-reading robot. Excellent experience that I intend to repeat with my sequels! Thanks Ashley!” The author also hired me to publish his book on Amazon.

Echoes of a Seer: The Starbinds Series, Book 1

I edited Echoes of a Seer and offered feedback on how to improve the story. The author was so happy with my work she hired me to also edit the next book in the series. She wrote in her review, “I am a returning customer of Ashley’s. This was for my 3rd book editing and proofreading. Great attention to detail and help to get my final manuscript into tip-top shape and ready for publication! Highly recommended! Thanks!” The author also hired me to publish her book on Amazon.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Ashley Emma has been wonderful through this whole process with me. My book is really short & more of a guidebook for people managing a loved one with dementia. She was kind enough to give me a discount since my book is not the typical length. She edited & had it back so fast. Communication was excellent, she was kind & helpful through the entire process! I will definitely be using her again!

Whether you wrote your book yourself, checked it with AI, or had AI write it for you, I take care of all the final details to ensure your book is in peak shape for publishing.

I read every word of your book and evaluate the following:

  • Clarity
  • Readability

I make all needed corrections using Track Changes in Word, and I leave comments about further improvements you may consider.

My aim in copyediting/proofreading is to preserve your original voice while helping you feel confident that your book is clear, correct, easy to read, consistent, and facing your readers properly, so I use a light hand.

Prices start at $5 per 500 words for an AI-generated or AI-edited book, and $5 per 250 words for a human-written book.

I also offer content editing, comprehensive editing, and beta reading for nonfiction and fiction books of all genres.

I look forward to working with you!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐The editor every author dreams of finding. Stacey_K is, hands down, one of the most thoughtful, precise, and deeply invested book editors I’ve ever worked with. She didn’t just "edit" my manuscript—she cared about it. Every suggestion was spot-on, respectful of my voice, and aimed at elevating the clarity, flow, and emotional impact of the story. She caught subtle inconsistencies, gently flagged areas that could be tightened, and even highlighted a few moments I hadn’t realized were working so well. She communicated clearly throughout the process, delivered on schedule, and honestly over-delivered. She went above and beyond in a way that made me feel like my book was in the hands of someone who truly wanted it to succeed. If you’re an author—especially working on memoir, inspirational nonfiction, or anything voice-driven—hire Stacey_K. Her attention to detail, editorial instincts, and professionalism are rare. I’d give her ten stars if I could. Thank you, Stacey, for helping bring this book to life. I’ll be back!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐If I could give 6 or 10 stars, I would! Working with Stacey was an outstanding experience from start to finish. She went above and beyond to get my manuscript across the finish line, investing more time and care than she needed to. What stood out most was her honest approach and genuine desire to make my work the best it could possibly be. Her eye for detail and commitment to excellence was invaluable. This is the kind of experience that builds long-term business relationships and earns the highest referrals. I’m deeply grateful for her expertise and will absolutely work with her again. If you take the leap into writing a book, trust Stacey to bring it to life.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐I reached out to about 20 different editors to see which one had the best price for the best experience and I landed on working with Stacey - I was not disappointed! Stacey was great to work with, brought up ideas and suggestions throughout the process, and helped me get a final product that I'm excited for! She was also very upfront about the services she offered (and what she didn't do) and was great at providing me with recommendations for the extra work I need on my book (e.g., formating, book cover, etc.). I plan on writing more books and Stacey will be at the top of the list to work with!

Book proofreading and editing

Holistic health coach Heidi Sorensen wrote her first book about her journey to overcome breast cancer naturally. This book was written to inspire other women, but to also assist Heidi in connect with new clients seeking her health coaching services. I proofread and edited the manuscript to ensure it was polished, error-free, and ready for publication. Heidi left a five-star review of my services, stating: “Marc is a great guy, very personable and helpful and an excellent editor. He caught all the little things that I missed and wouldn’t have noticed (and I’m a screenwriter!) He was fast and efficient and not only helped with the editing but also with the structure of my book, which is so important. I truly can’t thank you enough Marc! I will definitely come back when my next book is done!” * Review posted on my Fiverr profile on Nov 8th, 2022.

Books and e-Books I’ve written

These are just a few examples of health, fitness, and wellness books and e-books I have written. My books can be found on Amazon where you’ll see that they have gained hundreds of five-star reviews over the years.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Marc provided everything we were hoping for in an editor - not only excellent quality editing services, but a partner in ensuring that our book would shine! He was encouraging from the start, noticing things that we had done that were exceptional, and making helpful suggestions for things that we could do to optimize it. Our book is on a very sensitive subject - how to work with children with impacts of childhood trauma - and he was incredibly competent in guiding us with regard to how to best handle certain aspects of the book. Definitely highly recommend! We'll be using him again!
