Eilidh A Locherty

Chaptered Vine Studio

I’m a certified line and copyeditor with a deep love for romance, thrillers, and fantasy (though I work across all fiction genres). My approach is centered on collaboration, tailoring each edit to fit your unique needs as a writer. I know how vulnerable it can feel to have someone step into the world you’ve created, which is why every edit is a discussion, not just a correction. My goal is to empower you with explanations for each suggestion so you can make informed, confident decisions about your work.

When we work together, you’re not just getting an editor—you’re gaining a partner who’s invested in your story. I believe in keeping an open dialogue, offering regular updates, and providing actionable advice throughout the editing process. From our first conversation to the final, polished draft, I’m with you every step of the way.

What truly drives me is the opportunity to amplify underrepresented characters and marginalized voices. As an author myself, I understand how personal and important your story is, and I treat every manuscript with the utmost care and respect. Together, we’ll shape your story into something that truly reflects your vision and resonates with readers.

I stay current with industry trends, style guides, and best practices, ensuring that my feedback is always relevant and helpful.

I’m experienced in line editing, copyediting, and proofreading in both US and UK English, with expertise in the Chicago Manual of Style. I’m also a Reedsy editor.
