YOUR EDITOR & CHEER QUEEN
I'm Raquel A. Gil
I specialize in developmental and line edits
SILVERPRESS comes from my initials (A.G.) and my love for helping authors shine and polish their works. I have a BA in Language and Literature (in two languages!) and am working on my MA in Creative Writing. Over the last 10 years, I've edited mainly for writer-friends who went on to publish under anthologies for small presses while working on my own novels. I offer substantially more affordable rates as I earn my certifications and build my portfolio. See below for testimonials!
STRICTLY HUMAN HANDS ONLY. NO A.I. IS USED IN ANY OF MY EDITS.
WHAT I'D LOVE TO EDIT
Young Adult / New Adult / Adult
all spice levels 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️
***no triggers except cheating/infidelity between romance leads
-
Fantasy (all types; cozy to epic) - give me everything AND LitRPG, Progression Fantasy, isekai/transmigration/reincarnation, anime-inspired. The Beginning After the End, Solo Leveling, Lord of Mysteries. I also love a good Campfire Cooking in Another World — cozy attack on concepts and tropes!
-
Sci-fi (soft or grounded) - mainly for the filthy 6ft+ tall aliens. Think Ruby Dixon. Yes, that.
-
Romance blended with ALL categories: rom-coms, contemporary romances, gothic, horror, romantasy, romantic fantasy, etc. I devour everything.
-
Contemporary
-
Stories featuring strong girls, delicate girls, angry girls. Girls in different facets and stages of their girlhood. Bonus if they have a knife or something sharp.
-
Give me your kinkiest omegaverse, guideverse, hot monsters you want to run FROM and TO.
-
Give me fat books that explore continents, generations, and multiple kingdoms. I love BIG projects that are ambitious, imaginative, sexy, and cliché!
YOUR EDITOR & HYPE KING
I'm Sebbie Leaño
I specialize in lgbtq+ and literary fiction
I enjoy analyzing what makes a story tick—from plot details and character quirks all the way to how a word or punctuation choice can transform a sentence. I've been freelancing as a ghostwriter and have worked as a writing coach for students and young writers since 2017. I have a BA in Literature (English), and I'm currently finishing my MA in Creative Writing. Raqi invited me to transition into the editing world to provide affordable and accessible support for marginalized and indie writers. It took some convincing, but now I'm here, working on my certifications and building my portfolio alongside her.
NO A.I. WILL BE USED IN ANY OF MY EDITS. HUMAN HANDS, SWEAT, AND TEARS ONLY, BABY.
