I built Book Editing Blueprint because I’ve seen too many writers sink thousands of dollars into rough drafts.

Developmental editing for an 80,000-word book can cost $2,000 to more than $4,700 per round. And most authors need multiple rounds.

Add line editing, copyediting, and proofreading, and you’re easily looking at several thousand dollars per book.

That's where this course comes in.

Instead of paying someone to fix problems you could’ve caught yourself, I’ll show you how to do a smart, strategic self-edit, so your story is stronger, and your editor can focus on deeper, more advanced feedback.

Doesn't Waste Your Time

Maryclaire Torinus

“After taking the course, I have more confidence in my ability to revise my early drafts. It is a course that doesn’t waste your time, adds value to your writing practice, and shows respect for your pocketbook. Thank you, Stacy.”

Everything You Need

Lena Johnson

“Stacy lays out everything you need to know about how to self-edit, because we all want to hold a polished novel in our hands. Editing is incredibly intimidating, especially if you’re new at it. Having a guide and a toolkit makes it feel possible.”
