About Fatima
Hi, I’m Fatima — an independent developmental editor, copyeditor, and proofreader dedicated to helping transform authors’ words into their most polished and artfully refined form.

I hold an interdisciplinary Master’s degree in Literature and Social Sciences, which has equipped me with a solid grounding in storytelling, critical thinking, socio-political dilemmas, and the ways language shapes human experience. Over the past several years, I’ve been editing, writing, and refining manuscripts—and have had the privilege of working on more than 150 titles.
My client list includes bestselling authors, publishers, and field experts, and my editorial work spans a wide range of genres and disciplines, including:
- Literary and commercial fiction
- Self-development and nonfiction
- Political science and Social sciences
- Adolescent and young adult titles
- Memoirs and biographies
- Political commentaries, critiques and policy analyses
This broad experience allows me to bring nuanced understanding and flexibility to every manuscript I edit. I understand that each project is different, so I tailor my approach to support your unique voice and purpose.
Editing isn’t just about correcting grammar. It’s about strengthening your message, enhancing clarity, and helping your manuscript reach its full potential. Whether I’m providing developmental feedback, line editing, or final proofreading, I approach every project with care and a genuine respect for your creative vision.
I keep your words fresh, your message alive and your voice original.
When you work with me, you’ll receive:
- Thoughtful and constructive feedback
- Clear, professional edits
- Creative solutions when you feel stuck
- A collaborative partner who truly cares about your work
I would love the opportunity to support you in your writing journey and help you create a book that is truly publish-ready.
When I’m not editing or reading, I’m exploring international music, daydreaming, playfully torturing the souls of long-gone singing masters with my amateur ghazal renditions, or simply admiring the mountains—aren’t they just majestic?
Let’s bring your words to life together.
With love,
Fatima H.
