About this series
So, you’ve finally written that book. You’ve lured in readers with a professional cover and a catchy title. Now, you need them to leave positive reviews and, most importantly, buy more of your books.
Having your book professionally edited can help you give your readers what they want and leave them hungering for more.
However, any editor worth her salt—one that knows story and your genre inside and out—comes with a bill to match. Without the support of a traditional publishing house, indie authors have to pay up if they want their book to sell well. Lucky for you, there are ways to save.
As an indie author and professional editor with over two decades of experience, in this book, I’ll share my secrets on how you can reduce your editing rate without sacrificing professional quality.
Then, in the bonus chapter, I’ll give you tips for finding and vetting the best editor for your money while avoiding the scam artists. This book will help you if you
• Just finished the first draft of your novel.
• Finished your book but aren’t sure which step to take next.
• Are getting ready to self-publish or submit your book.
• Want to get the best rates from your freelance editor.
• Aren’t sure how to find an editor.
• Can’t afford an editor but want to get your book in tip-top shape before publishing or submitting.
You’ve worked hard on your book. Make sure that when you hit Publish, it shows.

Tora Moon
Tora Moon writes all genres of fantasy and especially loves to write stories which allow the reader to journey into worlds full of magic and escape their ordinary lives for a time. Ancient cultures and religions, mythology, and folklore fascinate her and find their way into her stories. Besides reading, some of her hobbies are sewing, crocheting, and making wire-wrapped jewelry. Her love of travel has taken her to several countries and saw her living in an RV for several years. She makes her home in the southwestern desert with her feline companion. You’d like to know more about me than that little official tidbit? So what else to say about me? Like most fiction authors, I fell in love with the written word and stories when I was a child. I loved The Witch of Blackbird Pond and The Island of the Blue Dolphin. As a teenager I found Dune, Conan the Barbarian, the Xanth series, and the Dragonriders of Pern (which is still my all-time favorite series). After that, much to my mother’s literary disappointment (she studied British Literature in college), my genre of choice was fantasy, science fantasy, with a bit of science fiction thrown in. I write what I love to read: all genres of fantasy, paranormal romance, and a bit of science fiction. I love stories like Star Wars which mix magic and science into science fantasy. I like a little love and romance to sweeten the pot, but not enough to make it sickly sweet.
