Let me help you tell your story.

Welcome.

I'm Michelle Noble, a professionally trained and affordable freelance editor and proofreader, and it’s my honour to support authors and creators in helping their work shine.

I earned a post-degree Publishing Certificate, with honours, from Toronto Metropolitan University in 2023, where I studied under industry leaders to hone my skills in all levels of editing on a variety of text materials.

I offer copyediting and proofreading services in addition to developmental editing, line editing, and manuscript assessments for fiction and narrative nonfiction.

I also edit and write business / marketing materials and web content, with special attention paid to SEO and accessibility for online text.

Whether you're working on a manuscript or building your brand online, I will ensure your words sound professional and polished while respecting the nuances of your authorial voice.

Free, no-obligation sample edits of 1000 words are available—and encouraged—to ensure we’re the right fit, so reach out today!

“You write to communicate to the hearts and minds of others what's burning inside you. And we edit to let the fire show through the smoke.”

Land Acknowledgment

I am a settler upon the traditional and unceded territories of the Erie, Neutral, Huron-Wendat, Haudenosaunee and Mississaugas (now called the City of Hamilton). This land is covered by the Dish With One Spoon Wampum Belt Covenant, an agreement between the Haudenosaunee and Anishinaabek to share and care for the resources around the Great Lakes, as well as the Between the Lakes Purchase, 1792 (Treaty 3), between the Crown and the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation.

I acknowledge a debt to those who were here before us and wish to recognize the importance of respecting. honouring, and learning from the intimate relationship Indigenous peoples have to the land. Reconciliation and decolonization remain the ongoing responsibilities of settlers.

I recognize the extensive generational harms perpetuated against First Nations, Métis, and Inuit peoples of Turtle Island, and I support the calls to action of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission and its calls to action for reparations to the rightful stewards and original storytellers of this land.
