Hi
I’m Stephanie White,
a fiction copyeditor and proofreader.
Your Words Are Your Voice
Welcome to White Rabbit Editing
Editing That Empowers Authors
Hi, I’m Stephanie, also known as the “Good Cop of Grammar.”
Why? Because I believe editing doesn’t have to be intimidating or overwhelming. I approach every project with the goal of building trust, offering guidance, and helping you grow as a writer—while always honoring your unique voice. You’ll have the final say on every decision. This is your story.
Why Work With Me?
✦ Genre Expertise
I specialize in romance, sci-fi, and fantasy, with a deep understanding of storytelling beats, pacing, and reader expectations.
✦ Author-Focused Approach
I’m passionate about helping indie authors and small presses polish their work to a professional, publish-ready standard. Editing isn’t just about grammar; it’s about partnership. My role is to help you make your book the best version of itself, while keeping your creative vision intact.
✦ Clear & Collaborative Communication
From the first email to the final edit, I’m transparent, responsive, and tailor my feedback to your style and goals.
✦ Flexible Services
Whether you’re polishing a final draft or need a careful proofread, I offer editing packages to fit your stage of the writing process.

My Roots (and a Few Fun Facts)
Before becoming a full-time editor, I worked in Horticulture as a Teaching and Research Assistant at the University of Georgia. I led research trials, published scientific papers, and helped develop college-level courses. That analytical, detail-focused background now supports my editorial work—alongside a genuine love for storytelling.
Today, I run White Rabbit Editing from home, offering personalized, professional editing with a friendly touch.
