Sam (he/him) / Scrollwork Edits - Editor/Author

I can’t believe I’m booked out for 2025. 🎉

I am blown away. Thank you. ❤️

I really need my clients to stop writing such vivid cooking scenes. Your editor keeps getting hungry. 😫❤️

Today I launched some exciting new options for my book editing business!

(1) New bundle deals
(2) New options for deposits
(3) A 4-month payment plan

Once again, I specialize in working with queer and neurodivergent indie authors writing fantasy, sci-fi, and romance. ❤️🏳️‍🌈

If you’re running a business and not speaking up for your clients or audience (if you can do so without risking real danger), you aren’t yet ready to run a business.

Authors. Editors.

Have you hydrated today? 👀

I have a last-minute editing slot for August. ❤️ I’m a trans and disabled book editor who specializes in working with queer and disabled authors writing romance, fantasy, and sci-fi.

It feels like there is constant pressure in writing spaces not to edit as you draft. BS. Some authors do better editing as they go. Other authors do better just getting the first draft out quickly. Other authors do a mix.

Stop assuming one method is better and pressuring new authors to follow it. 🫠

3 book editing slots left for 2025, and I just opened 2026 as well! ❤️

I’m a book editor specializing in working with queer and neurodivergent (I’m both myself) indie authors writing fantasy, sci-fi, and romance, and I can’t wait to hear more about your manuscript.🏳️‍🌈

If you’re looking for a book editor who specializes in working with indie authors writing sci-fi, fantasy, or romance, take a peek. ❤️

Me: “I should do a Pride sale!”

Also me: “I should maybe publish my book first.”

Oops. 👀

Anyway, Happy Pride from a queer author writing an aroace sci-fi series focusing on platonic relationships and disability rep! 🏳️‍🌈

Propaganda I’m not falling for:

🔴 “clean” romance
🔴 generative AI
🔴 not “relating” to Black characters
🔴 reverse tropes
🔴 “correct” English
🔴 “cancel culture” being a “threat” to white authors or a negative thing
🔴 creating a “safe space” by avoiding politics
🔴 hating on sapphic books

I’m aroace and spice-averse. However…

If you’re “just” ace or aro, you’re valid.
If you’re spice-favorable, you’re valid.
If you’re demi, you’re valid.
If your ace/aro identity feels complex, you’re valid.
If your labels change later, you’re valid.
If you’re unsure if you’re ace/aro, you’re valid.

Editing slots open for July through December, with the exception of August, which is fully booked.

Payment plans and free sample edits available!

Updated book editing availability for 2025. 🥰 I specialize in working with queer and neurodivergent indie authors writing fantasy, sci-fi, and romance. 🏳️‍🌈

Happy Trans Day of Visibility!

My pronouns are he/him and my name is Sam Willow. 🏳️‍⚧️

Me to myself: “Stop adding to your tbr.”

Me: *adds five more books*

Thank you so much! As someone who is queer and disabled in the US, I worried about the future of my editing business, but as of today, I’m booked until July! Seeing your support has been amazing, and I’m so excited to work on more of your amazing manuscripts. ❤️🏳️‍🌈

It gives “other people can take care of them; it’s not my job” vibes. 😬 Yes, platforms should make this easier. But when have systems ever done the work community can do ten times better for each other? We *have* to look out for and support each other and that includes accessibility. ❤️

Same! I actually came across one by accident and was able to stay and cheer for a bit before fatigue kicked in. I can rarely participate in person, so it was absolutely amazing to be there, if only for a little, and see that power in action. ❤️

I saw clips of the halftime show and just CHILLS. On point. Every damn second. The artistry is incredible. THIS is America. Best FU to white supremacy and colonialism ever!! So happy to see so much Black joy filling my feed today. ❤️

That’s amazing you made it more accessible while still getting to participate. ❤️

Hope and joy and rest are all part of resistance and are needed to help transform fear and panic into activism and community care.

Oh, this is gorgeous! ❤️

This is oddly relatable. 😅

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

There’s (understandably) a lot of fear circulating right now. See if you can set aside time to intentionally stay updated and active, and also set aside time for rest and joy. We need both. Neither an endless fear spiral nor tapping out helps.

I’m reading it right now and it is SO good!!

Oh, that is amazing! 😍
