Turn your 3-star writing into 5-star writing
Want your readers turning pages so fast their fingers blister?
Looking to crack the top ten in your genre and collect glowing reviews?
Want to look like a professional and get book bloggers raving about your work?
To make money writing, you need to write like a pro. And professional writers hire professional editors to polish their work.
I’ve got the receipts. My #1 Amazon best seller clients keep coming back for more. Even writing coaches hire me to improve their work. And one author I helped had his first novel nominated for a major literary award.
My skills have been honed over a decade. I apprenticed under professional editors. And I’ve got hundreds of my own clients’ assignments under my belt. My published work earned me a Dragon Award and a John W, Campbell Award for Best New Writer nod.
But that’s gravy on top of the royalties my #1 best seller keeps bringing in.
And I treat my clients like royalty. If you’re serious about maximizing your audience, and if you’re professional enough to work with an editor who gives you straightforward practical advice you can apply right away, I stand ready to help you boost your 3-star book to 5 stars.
What I offer
Developmental Editing: A developmental edit helps develop your book’s content. It brings structure, character, theme, and more up to professional standards. Dev edits focus on the “big picture” elements that can make or break your book.
Line Editing: More than just checking for typos and punctuation errors, line edits focus on paragraph and sentence-level style and language use. Line editing ensures that the writing in your manuscript is clear, conveys mood effectively, and has a consistent tone. It affects a book’s readability more than any other publishing step.
Comprehensive Editing: A combination of developmental and line editing.
Investment
I offer multiple packages based on client needs. My comprehensive editing package starts at $0.055/word and includes both developmental editing and line editing. I also offer developmental editing and line editing individually starting at $0.03/word.

Here’s Why My Author Clients Keep Coming Back for More
“Brian is a detail-oriented editor with a knack for fixing what most newbie authors didn’t even realize needed fixing. He’s been a great help to my team, and I highly recommend him for both fiction and nonfiction”
“Brian knows the precise way to remove excess fluff from a story while at the same time highlighting its strongest qualities so that the finished product is something you as a creator can be truly proud of.”

Why Editing?
Brian Niemeier here. In addition to writing best selling award-winning books, I’ve helped author clients who’ve written their own best sellers.
Almost 4 million books are published each year. To attract readers and get sales, your book has to stand out from the crowd.
Knowing how to get your book noticed is hard. Because author blogs, writing groups, and industry podcasts shower you with advice, only 25% of which will help you. And sifting the signal from the noise takes years.
That’s where my vast experience writing acclaimed books and editing best selling authors comes in.
Let me take the guesswork out of making your book its best.
As an author, odds are you’re in the 99th percentile of verbal ability. You know the story you want to tell, and you’ve got the chops to tell it. But so does your competition.
A pro author can make every book good. But against 4 million competitors, good won’t cut it. Your book has got to be great.
What 99% of writers don’t know are the secret techniques that turn good books into great books. And even if you figure some of them out, you can’t apply them to best effect. Because your brain will insert what you meant to be on the page instead of what is in fact there.
That’s why every author needs a second, experienced set of eyes to see the forest for the trees.
Lawyers don’t represent themselves.
Doctors don’t operate on themselves.
Authors shouldn’t edit alone.
What you need to save yourself years of trial and error, get objective guidance, and take your work from good to great is a pro who specializes in helping authors realize the best version of each book.
In a word, you need an editor.
I’ve helped dozens of author clients find the right words and present the right elements in the right order to take their books from good to great.
