Stronger stories start here
At Olly Grey we believe editing is a sacred process.
We work with fiction and nonfiction authors—as well as content creators and copywriters—at various stages of the writing process, offering developmental editing, line editing, copyediting, proofreading, and manuscript critiques.
No matter where you are in your writing journey, Olly Grey provides thoughtful, professional editing for writers who care deeply about language, clarity, and craft. We’re intentional about understanding your unique voice and style—and we take great care never to change what makes your work yours.
Why Work with an Editor?
Because your words merit thoughtful, professional care. Olly Grey offers a fresh perspective that clarifies your message and strengthens its impact—removing obstacles so your ideas can shine.
Even professional editors (who are also writers) rely on editors for their own work.
We all have blind spots when it comes to our writing, and a skilled outside eye can spot issues—and opportunities—you may have missed.
Olly Grey’s process is collaborative and considered. We work with you to shore up weaknesses, prune excesses, edit and format according to established editorial styles, and thoughtfully query any change we believe would enhance your writing.
Tailor-Made Services for Every Need
Client Experiences
Writing can be one of the most challenging, yet rewarding things. Preparing your work to be shared with the world is intimidating.
I am so grateful to have had Olly Grey and Melissa walk by my side. Her expertise helped develop my project to the next level, while keeping my voice and authenticity. I can’t wait to work with her on my next project.
Jill Hales
Author
I appreciated the opportunity to build a new working relationship with a fellow editor. Melissa was an ideal partner as she made insightful edits, was flexible in her suggestions and options to the author, and produced an edited manuscript that sounded like the original, only better!
I learned a lot from her and I highly recommend Melissa and Olly Grey.
