Nina Solomita, MFA, Professional Writing Services
Editing Services
I provide a wide array of services for all types of written projects, including Fiction and Nonfiction Manuscripts, Personal Story and Memoir, and Website and Blog Content.
Each writing and editing project is unique and requires a custom solution.
Free Initial Consultation and Proposal
To assess your needs, I offer a free, half-hour initial consultation. With information from that interview, I prepare a proposal describing the steps that will best meet your project goals, and an estimate of fees.
Award-winning novelist and short-story writer, George Saunders, believes that good editing is the most respectful action that writers provide to their readers. Read my article on editing by clicking here.
Manuscript Evaluation to Assess Content, Organization and Style and to
Provide Editing Plan Recommendations
This service offers a professional assessment of your work at its current level of development. Even the best writers need an objective perspective on their drafts. An evaluation will reveal the strengths and weaknesses in your manuscript and offer ways to express the writer’s intentions.

The wonderful character in your life whose memory should be honored?
The singular perspective only you can pass on to future generations?
"But, I don't have time." "I'm not a good writer." "It's too big a project." "Who'd be interested in that?!" "I don't ..." "I can't ..." "It's too ..." "I don't ..." "I can't ..."
What if: All that was required of you was to tell your story?
What if: Your words were then fused with your energy and delivered to you in a written document that you can keep forever and pass on to posterity?
This service provides a sympathetic and discerning ear, then the appropriate framework and all necessary services for you to create the legacy or story you would like to tell. Services include:
~ Set Project Goals, Provide Framework and Questions
