Editing Services at My Word Publishing

We’ve collected a powerful stable of development editors, copyline editors, and proof editors.

Your Book, Your Choice

The aim of doing so is to give you the option to choose an editor to work on your book that suits your vision and your unique voice, and that you connect with. Our editors are some of the very best in the industry, and we want to make sure the one we assign to you is one with which you can form a lasting relationship. When you decide to have your book edited with My Word Publishing, you are choosing to work with editors who are vetted to the highest of standards, are prompt, affordable, communicate with you for your benefit, and are reliable.

Working with My Word Publishing was a Godsend. Literally. I prayed for divine partners to help me navigate the journey of self-publishing, and Amanda Miller and Bryan Canter were exceptional. The project management, pricing transparency, responsiveness, competence, and service were outstanding. It made an otherwise complex process manageable - both practically and emotionally! I highly recommend this service provider.

Polly Letofsky and her team are God's gift to authors. As an author herself, she understands the heart and soul of bringing a book into this world, and how the maze of finding and pitching agents, publishers, editors and designers can keep many great books from seeing the light of day. My husband and I - both journalists - had been pitching our book for well over a year, to no avail. Then another author referred us to Polly. She and her expert team assessed our book, made it shine, and walked us step by step through the self publishing process (helping us to avoid common new-author mistakes along the way) and boom! Six months later, we're launching our AWESOME book on Amazon (and it's selling!). Through it all, Polly has been our dedicated guide, tough-love perfectionist, marketing guru, and cheerleader. She knows how to get it done. We're already talking about our next book - and she will be our person to birth it. IF YOU HAVE A GREAT STORY TO TELL, POLLY IS THE PERSON TO HELP YOU TELL IT TO THE WORLD. Signed, Kris Patrow, co-author of the memoir DEADLINE: A Reporter's True Story of Cardiac Arrest and the Race to Survive.

Polly and everyone on her team are top notch. The finished product is amazing. We struggled for a long time trying to find an agent or publisher that would take us. With no luck. Once we found Polly and My Word Publishing we were off to the races. They were all kind, talented, and invested in our book. It was a great decision. Worth it.

My Word is simply fantastic. Amanda Miller was my publishing consultant. She was delightfully personable, deeply knowledgeable, inspirational, and patient, fully prepared to handhold me when necessary through my first time self-publishing. We got my book published in less time than projected with no headaches. I couldn’t have asked for more. I highly recommend them! Gerry Brooks

I've been working with My Word Publishing for the past two years, and recently launched my book, Beyond Bedrails and Bingo: Myths, Truths, and the Future of America's Nursing Homes, on May 19. My team was led by Amanda Miller, and included Laura Kaiser (editor), Cheryl Jaclin Isaac (proofreader), Laura Duffy (cover artist) and Asya Blue (layout artist). I will share that I’ve not ever had the privilege of working with such brilliant and committed people at one time on a singular project. Friends and colleagues have not stopped commenting about various features of this work, which is a tribute to the team play and expert guidance delivered. Though this was my introduction to work involving the published written word, it won't be the last...or the last with the team at My Word Publishing. Congratulations and thank you for everything!

Polly was amazing to work with. First and foremost, she is very very responsive and gets tasks done very quickly. I was most impressed with her attention to protecting me as the author and catering to my specific vision. I recommend her and her team 10/10. Special shout out also to Bryan, who did the interior layout and ebook and I loved how he made it a very easy read, which was important to me.

Polly with My Word Publishing has been the secret sauce for my successful book launch and a very successful first 4 weeks run. I recommend My Word Publishing to anyone who wants to self publish.

It is a real pleasure to work with Amanda Miller. Her skills and patience are surely evident as she works with this first-time author. She has been most helpful as I work to improve my own skills at the computer. I have so much to learn, and she is a willing and able teacher. Ron Rich, author

Working with My Word Publishing on my first book, Rebrand YOU, was a great experience. Their team was professional, supportive, and helpful throughout the publishing process. They made everything feel much less overwhelming, and I’d highly recommend them to any first-time author.

We hate to brag on ourselves, but...

We have a lot of happy authors!
