Making it easy for readers to love your book

As a novice author, Lyss was the first professional I met in the publishing world, and I’m so grateful it was her! She’s kind, patient, and an incredible editor with a light-handed touch that lets your voice shine. My work still feels entirely like mine, just beautifully refined.

Lyss took the time to explain her services, answer every question (even the ones not directly about editing, and I had plenty!), and guide me through the process with genuine care. She’ll also be editing my sequel, and I honestly can’t wait to work with her again!

What a wonderful experience working with Lyss! As a first-time writer, I was nervous to share my book, but Lyss’s constructive, common-sense feedback made my novel much better. Lyss never set deadlines for me. I made corrections at my own pace, but for each round of editing, Lyss returned my manuscript with edits on time, according to the deadline she set for herself. Lyss made this process so easy! I’ll definitely ask Lyss to edit my next book! 10/10.

Lyss is an absolute godsend. In a sea of online editors, it can be quite difficult to find someone who will not only do a good job, but will properly edit erotica of a niche nature.

I write erotica involving monsters and humans, and not only was it a tremendous pleasure working with Lyss, but I could feel her excitement for the source material. I've worked with other editors who didn't have enthusiasm for the material, and I definitely felt like they weren't pouring their heart and soul into helping me polish my stories to a level they deserved.

Lyss has done full editing for two of my novels, and I plan to hire her continuously, because she does an absolutely fantastic job. I refuse to work with any other editor now that I have worked with her.

So if you write erotica, stop looking for an editor right now and hire her. I doubt you will find better.​

Working with Lyss has been amazing! She's timely and an amazing book editor. She worked with me non-stop for two years to edit the six books in my series, and I've gotten compliments on the grammar in each of the books because of her. I can't wait to work with her in the future and I can't recommend her enough.​

I will never have enough words to express how happy I am that I found Lyss. The professionalism, the work ethic, the way Lyss interacted and guided me—it was just beyond all my expectations. Lyss worked on developmental and line editing of my manuscript, and I couldn't be happier with the results. Lyss does so much more than what's included in the service. I handed her my characters, and she treated them with care, love, and respect. What else could you wish for? I am so happy I have found my forever editor :). Thank you!!!​

Lyss is such an amazing editor! I’ve worked with Lyss on all three of my books, and I couldn’t be happier with her service. I’m a new romance indie author, and Lyss has been incredibly kind, patient, and understanding with me throughout the whole copyediting and proofreading process. I remember coming to her with my first draft—I was extremely nervous because I had never worked with an editor before, but she was such a professional. She put me at ease from the very first moment she answered my email. Her edits and notes are incredibly detailed, beyond my expectations. She’ll explain her changes to you, give you helpful and insightful tips on how to make your writing flow better, and catch all the little mistakes and inconsistencies that are easy to miss in a long manuscript. She’s very thorough in her edits, and her attention to detail is excellent. Not only that, I feel like she truly cares about the story and the quality of work she’s delivering to her clients. I’ve learned so much from her, and my writing has gotten better because of her. I love working with Lyss and will continue to do so, and I recommend her wholeheartedly to anyone looking for an editor. She’s honestly the best.

Before hiring Lyss Em Editing, I thought all I needed was a quick proofread and that was all. After working with her over the last six manuscripts I have learned how invaluable her services are. Her feedback, which is polite, professional and timely, enables me to elevate my writing, making it better than ever before. I'm confident when I publish that my readers are getting top-notch quality, giving me validity as an author.​

I hired Lyss for a copyedit of my MM romance and I’m so glad I did. She caught all my little (and sometimes big) mistakes and set them right. Not only that, but she made suggestions to improve the readability of my manuscript without changing the tone of the story or my voice.​

Lyss is a life saver. I was in a tough spot and on a short deadline before I hired her. Because of her quick turnaround and fantastic work not only did I meet my deadline, I felt like my story was stronger because of her thorough edit and feedback.​

I hired Lyss to do a full edit of a MPreg book, and I was impressed with her from start to finish. Her structural edits transformed my story, and her grammar and copy edits were of a quality that I would expect from an editor with a much higher price tag.

My favorite thing about working with Lyss is that she embraces kink. I never felt like my work was too weird or sexual for her. I've already discussed hiring her for my next project. I've worked with other editors on smaller pieces I've had published, and Lyss was the easiest to work with. She's fast, she respected my voice, and she knows what she's doing. You won't regret hiring her.

In the scramble for a new editor for my series, Lyss Em Editing came through. They were quick and thorough, catching all of my mistakes without tampering with my voice. They were exactly what I needed and I plan to continue working with them. 100% recommend!​
