ABOUT ME

Hello! I’m Jo Speirs – A lover of words.

I offer professional editing and proofreading solutions for self-publishing authors who want their books read and voices heard. I’m also a traditionally published author. My debut - Second Chance Love in Point Perry - is available now.


I'll show you how my editing will make your manuscript shine while providing gentle and insightful suggestions to improve, not change your story or voice.

As an experienced line and copyeditor + proofreader, with additional skills in manuscript assessments and developmental editing, I love to support self-publishing authors just like you, who set high standards and understand the value of investing in a professional product for your readers.


I can help you move past the overwhelm and the fear of rejection when getting ready to publish your book.

The result: quality and professional product that’s clear, correct and compelling. A manuscript or business communication that maintains your unique voice and message, and is a genuine reflection of your readership, audience, or business.


Not only will you feel more confident about your finished product, but you’ll enjoy how stress-free the entire process is.


‘Jo is a thorough and professional editor with a great eye for detail while still looking at the bigger picture of the story.’
