The Editor’s Manual: earn money editing with confidence!
Denis Ledoux has edited hundreds and hundreds of writers. Our Editor’s Manual distills decades of that editing experience. He knows how you can earn money editing!
I have always found that editing in all its facets—developmental, content, copy—is essential for any memoir. The secret to our editing is we shape a story with the author in mind and not the editor. Sometimes an editor can push for excellence, and at other times, an editor commits to helping a writer create the best book s/he can. Not every memoir can be outstanding but every memoir can be clear, coherent and interesting.

A writing coach can help you at every step of the process. Having “been there and done that”—and being able to talk clearly about it, a memoir-writing coach can point you in the right direction and gently correct your course.
A coach is a teacher, a cheerleader, a critic, a motivator, a writing buddy, a person who holds you accountable for meeting your goals, a good listener, and sometimes an editor—and a coach can be more if you need more.
