Hillary Beth Trivette
I've been an editor for 19 years.
Whether for the webzine GGFG, or a freelancer on Fiverr.com (https://www.fiverr.com/ladybug8), or other independent projects, the time I've spent editing has always been my favorite type of work.
As of the first quarter of 2024, I have had the honor of editing over 150 books in my career. This doesn't count the thousands of consultations on academic papers, business articles, smaller e-books, and work I've done on website content. (I've completed over 1750 orders on Fiverr and maintained a 5-star rating.)
​
Some of my favorite projects have been proofreading a sci-fi series, and editing and giving feedback on several general novels, as well as editing two books (on grief and for husbands) by a pastor from South Carolina. If you're into the sports world, you'll enjoy knowing that I have worked with Tyrone Smith on his book and accompanying journal, and Shannon Bobbitt on her autobiography. In 2020, I edited the second book in a series by Matthew Fenn, "The Scorched Crown."
I also edited "The Butterfly Blueprint" by Stephanie Miller
and a book by Rick Norris which was being re-released as well as a short story. Other recent books I've edited include: a dental office design consultant book, an information technology course, and a culture/history book, and a book about authenticity and self-worth.
​
Enjoy suspense? I've had the pleasure to work on a series by Raj Agrawal which can be found here and here.
​
I also actively work on a variety of projects with Beth Beutler, and highly recommend her professional services through H.O.P.E. Unlimited (Helping Others Pursue Excellence) - you can find her books on Amazon.
​
While freelancing over the past few years, I've also volunteered with childrens' organizations and programs, been an active part of womens' programs, and had the pleasure of starting to raise a daughter and a son, homeschooling them alongside my husband, Andrew. You'll see emails from me most often in the afternoon and evenings.
I'm a details person - very little gets past me!
I have to really work to step back and see the big picture - but freelancing has allowed me to finally develop this skill.
I have self-published one title myself, "Write for Him: The Story of GGFG."
​
This project involved editing 25 different girls' works and forming a collaboration of devotionals, fiction and true stories, poems, and more! These girls represented 10 different countries - and uniquely different backgrounds - but one faith.
​
My bachelor's degree was in Information Technology with a Media minor in 2011.

Recently I joined the EFA, Editorial Freelance Association: https://www.the-efa.org/memberinfo/hillarybeth-trivette-38503/
