Welcome

Whether you’ve just finished your first novel or your tenth (or fiftieth!), we're here to help.

We support authors in their self-publishing journey, from the first draft to the finished product, with coaching, editing, formatting, and marketing services.

We specialize in the following genres: fantasy, romance (all varieties, including paranormal), young adult (fantasy, romance, and dystopian), and thrillers.

Whatever your level of writing, we'll help you polish your novel to the best it can be. With Luna Imprints Author Services (LIAS), you can be sure to get professional services, one-on-one coaching, and a guiding hand along the journey that cares as much about your writing as you do.

What authors say about us

“No problem slips through the cracks”

“Alexa goes by the title of editor, but I refer to her by something more apt: Magician. I send her a beta read draft with demographic info and a blurb, and she polishes it to a shiny gem and gives me the advice to form it into a precious product. Along with experience, she has the perspective of a reader, writer, editor, and socially aware person. When all of those are applied, no problem slips through the cracks. When she edits, she tries every possibility for you and not just whichever one she likes so you can make a choice. To top it all off, she types a 4000+ word critique and gives you an hour of video call to discuss the good, the bad, and the ugly. Since Alexa is also a fan of great work, you leave every interaction feeling like a quality writer with a clear set of paths to showing that in your writing—you need only to pick the trails you like most.”

Jared Griffin

Author of The Perpetual Circadian Rhythm drama and the Nightmare Judicator fantasy series

“Invaluable Editing Expertise”

“Alexa makes the entire editing process comfortable. She’s like a long lost friend with invaluable editing expertise. Pricing is very competitive! I had reached out to various editing companies and overall Luna Imprints was the best option based on pricing, offerings, personality, & knowledge. Alexa helped me to improve my novel to a degree I never thought possible. I’m so thrilled with Alexa’s kindness, knowledge, and patience and I plan to hire Luna Imprints again for my next novel. No matter what level of editing you require, you need Alexa and her team!”

Connie Chyle Rossner

Author of Me & Eryn Carlo, a chick lit novel

“Exceeded my expectations”

“I had been unhappy with my initial editor and was a bit wary going forward. But Alexa’s skills as an editor, with both developmental and copy editing, exceeded my expectations. She is thorough and meticulous, but also warm and encouraging, and generous with advice outside of the editing purview. I was so pleased with the result that I hired Alexa to edit my next two books in the series and recommended her to two fellow authors who subsequently hired her as well. I should add that Luna Imprints stays in line with standard rates for editing and proofreading, but provides (in my opinion) superior services, and offers great little perks such as online Zoom meetings to follow up with any questions or clarifications. I greatly appreciate the fact that Alexa is respectful of me as an author, always acknowledging that it is not her book, it is mine, and changes are ultimately up to me. This is not only reassuring, but it also makes it easier to accept the changes and recommendations that I need to make in order to make the book shine, even though I don’t always want to do so. All these facets add up to my recommendation of Alexa Padou as an outstanding editor!”

Judith Lepore

Author of the The Magic of Miraven epic fantasy series
