Meet The Editor

Hi! I'm Emily Kulaga

I love to read - I'm the quintessential bookworm and can usually be found snuggled on the couch with the dog and a novel in my hand (hardcover, of course).

I am also a stickler for polished writing - nothing takes me out of a story faster than a typo! My mental red pen is always working. One day, I had an epiphany: wouldn't it be great if I could help catch those pesky errors before a book makes it to print?

And just like that, Eagle Eye Editing was born.

When I think back on my favorite books, I'm drawn to them not only for the quality of the writing but also the excellent editing that kept me engaged in the story and not mentally correcting errors. Let's give your manuscript the professional polish that will make it your readers' next favorite book!

Frequently Asked Questions

Have a question that's not included below? Email me at contact@eagleeyeediting.net and I'll get you an answer!

Why "Eagle eye" editing?

That's easy! I'm a stickler for proper punctuation and polished writing. Early in my previous career as a marketer, I earned the nickname "Eagle Eye" because I often found misspellings and typos that my colleagues missed. I understand that what you write - whether it's a sell sheet or a book series - makes an impression. I wear that nickname proudly because it speaks to my ability to see things that others miss.

What types of books do you edit?

I edit fiction novels that are Middle Grade, YA, or Adult. No picture books, children's books or nonfiction. Please also note that I do not edit stories with graphic sexual content or to gender affirming pronouns.

Do I need content and/or line editing done on my manuscript?

Yes! I highly recommend you have content and line editors review your manuscript before working with me. My forte is on the technical side (i.e. grammar, punctuation, typos, etc.) and I excel at it. As such, my services do not include providing feedback on story arcs, scene pacing, character development, etc.

How quickly can i receive my edits?

It depends on your manuscript. Please send me a note via the contact button at either the top or the bottom of this page so that we can discuss your project in more detail!
