Maria Asuncion

Proofreader, copy editor, developmental editor and copy writer. I’ve been a proofreader for many years and a copy editor for the past few years. I’ve recently been a developmental editor for novels, mainly in the romance genre. Currently, I’m open to providing my services online to the following genres: romance, short stories, children’s and all non-fiction.

As the editor and founder of Empowered Editing, I support your writing journey by editing your work in a detail-oriented but appreciative and compassionate manner. Let’s be real—having your work looked over is not always a fun experience, but I will do my best to lift up your work as I bring it even closer to perfection.

You can learn more about my budget-friendly editing services and rates at empoweredediting.com.

“Maria is so great to work with! She really captures my intention for the book and helps me mold my stories into what I want them to be. She provides great feedback, both positive and constructive, to really make my books better. I always feel like I have a partner in the novel-making process having her on my team. She’s so creative and fantastic at helping me add interesting details that really help enrich the immersion of the story! I always look forward to working with Maria!” – Kennedy Thomas, Author of The Viking King’s Love (which is free on Kindle Unlimited!)
