Request edit access
Welcome! I'm Selena, or S. L. Martinez
You're here because you're either interested in one of my book editing services, or you're in need of a beta reader. This form is mainly for me to gauge on whether or not we'd make a great fit in terms of working with one another. In between working with clients, writing my own books, and diving into my latest savory and sweet creations, I'll do my best to get back to you as soon as I am able.

When I do reach out within two to three days, and let you know that I'd love to work with you, I'll ask for a sample edit of 2,000 words from your book (preferably the middle if you're needing developmental edits).

Depending on which service you require, you'd be receiving everything you would expect from a full edit, but in shorter form.

From there, along with your queries or questions, we would discuss the contract and payment for the deposit. Throughout the process, you can expect weekly updates as well as queries or questions of my own to ensure your manuscript is receiving the edits you've booked for.

Important things to note: 

  • I cannot guarantee an error-free book. 
  • I offer payment plans
  • I will not accept any manuscripts that have been written, or aided by the use of generative AI. Nor will I use any form of AI software while editing your manuscript.
  • I book months in advance
  • I do not tolerate racism nor discrimination of any kind
  • If I feel like we're not a good fit, I'll try and recommend you to an editor who is

Other than that, thank you so much for inquiring in my services, and I hope that you're doing well and are staying safe.

Availability update: I have availability from October to December 2026, and I am accepting bookings for 2027.


-Selena :)
