It is sad to have a valuable message to share with the world, only to have it discounted because of a grammatical or spelling error or a poor sentence structure.
It’s wonderful to find an editor who can give you the psychological support you need as you dare to expose your ideas to the world. I found that she could help me see when my ideas were confused or not expressed well in ways that were so gentle I felt supported rather than criticized.
Marilyn King’s expertise includes refining your language to meet the highest critical standards. In addition, her background as a therapist makes her able to understand the nuances of communication, so that your words say exactly what you mean – with brilliance and style.

When I published collections of my poetry and visual art, The Alchemy of Love and The Eloquence, I asked Marilyn King to edit and proofread my pieces.
I was more than pleased with her work. She is meticulous and thorough and her command of the English language – syntax/spelling/punctuation – is peerless. No typos or mistakes have escaped her eagle eye.
Moreover I found her editing excellent. She is respectful and sensitive to the author’s style, while providing specific and insightful comments that improve the form and content of the text.
I highly recommend her services; you will be amazed at her skill.

Marilyn has been editing my soon to be published visionary fiction novel, Synchronicity of Ulysses. I had tried a couple editing services previously, however Marilyn’s style instantly resonated with me. She has a gift of making your writing a publishable standard whilst also keeping your unique voice. I think that if you are writing visionary fiction, that it’s very important to have an editor that understands this genre and is passionate about what it’s trying to achieve. Marilyn is this editor. She often goes beyond the call of duty and my book is dramatically better having been under her care.

Marilyn copyedited our annual report, which is a collaboration including contributions from several authors. She was patient and careful in editing the text so that it had the same tone and editorial style throughout. She is wonderful to work with, and her copyediting is the highest quality!
