Audrey is a Editor from Marion, Ohio, USA

"Audrey Hodge is my go-to person for my editing needs. I appreciate the care she takes to get to know me and what I like. She is very kind and courteous in her editing language, which is refreshing in the book writing industry." Are you wondering if you, as an author, need an editor? My question to you is, “Do you want an excellent book that will sell? Or are you just writing to write, and you don’t care if anyone buys it or what they think?” If you want to make money from your book, get an editor. Editors improve your book. Period. Think about it. The first impression you make on people is with your writing. Making sure it is well-composed and grammatically correct instills a sense of authority, intelligence, and attention to detail that lays a foundation for trust. Let me be the second set of eyes on your writing to help you build that trust. WHY YOU NEED AN EDITOR -You want a best-selling book and know you need an editor’s help to make that happen. -You want your book to look like it was professionally published. -You don’t want a bad review because of bad grammar, spelling errors, or typos. I'm a copy editor. I focus on editing prescriptive nonfiction books such as self help, business, and how-to, but also edit memoirs and the occasional fiction book. I am also available to proofread. WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ “Audrey Hodge is my go-to person for my editing needs. I appreciate the care she takes to get to know me and what I like. She is very kind and courteous in her editing language, which is refreshing in the book writing industry. She has helped me with many book projects and I plan to continue to work with her more in the future. I trust that she most probably even edited this here blurb. ;)” -Lindsay Ford, Publisher and Author ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ “I had the pleasure of working with Audrey on the accompaniment to my audiobook. I was impressed with Audrey's ability to turn a phrase and find simple ways to improve my written piece. She was always timely with her responses, and her attention to detail was impeccable. I highly recommend using her services.” - Andy W, Author & Investor ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ "I hired Audrey to edit my books since English isn't my native language. I am so happy I found her! If you need an honest, fast, and reliable partner, Audrey is the right choice for you. She doesn't just check grammar and spelling, but always keeps an eye on everything else—for example logical mistakes and such. Can't wait to work with her again and again!" -Virginia Rott, First Sin

Find your dream assistant now

This is such a needed service for authors. I've used VA/PA services from other well-known freelance platforms, but they can be overwhelming and daunting. Looking for an assistant who has some knowledge of the author world (such as Bookbub Ads) is like looking for a needle in a haystack with these larger platforms.

I had been dragging my feet on hiring a more permanent VA/PA for so long because I didn't want to have to deal with looking through that proverbial haystack, but Busy Bee makes it so easy to find the assistant you need for the work you need as an author. Thank you, Brian!!
