Based in Northfield, Minnesota, USA, I help academic clients around the world with large and small editing projects in the following fields:
- liberal arts
- humanities
- social sciences
- music
- English
- education
- political science
- fine arts
With a Ph.D. in linguistics and fifteen years of experience teaching academic writing to English language students, I have a reputation for my laser-sharp eye and a client-centered approach to editing. I like helping clients learn what makes good writing good, and how it can be better. Here's what my clients say about working with me:
"Working with Eden is an absolute joy! Her eye for the English language is akin to that of a computer scientist for their code. Not only is she accurate, but thoughtful and kind in her feedback."
"Eden kept me on track for completing my first book draft. Beyond her coaching support, Eden also did a fabulous job noting important moments in my work that I could expand and elements that could be trimmed, and she also encouraged me to be more thoughtful about word choices throughout my manuscript. Without her, I never would have gotten my book into publishing shape!"
"There is nothing negative I can say about Eden Kaiser’s editorial work. Her attention to detail is incredible."
I specialize in the following services:
- copyediting
- proofreading
- book coaching
- academic English language support (for ESL speakers and writers)
I am a member of the Editorial Freelancers Association and I am on the board of the Professional Editors Network. In my spare time, I consume fiction as if it were food; I paint enthusiastically as only an amateur can; and I run, bike, swim, and do yoga as often as my schedule allows.
