About INKarakter
Hi, I’m Daniel!
Your Friendly Editing Wizard
Working from the comfort of my own home—on the couch, in my PJ’s if need be—I love to dive into the manuscripts of fantasy, historical fiction, psychological thriller, and suspense authors. I’ve made it my mission to help them whip their words into publishable shape.
Being a fiction author is no easy job. You’re basically taking on the duties of a god. You have to be a special kind of crazy to want to do that, right?
I know! I’m one of you, published under a few different pseudonyms, but here I’m wearing my editor’s hat.
Editor by Day, Author by Night
I understand your struggles from both sides of the table: As an author, I need my own editors to go over my manuscripts to point out my blind spots. Because, believe me, we all have them, and there’s no shame in that. As an editor and proofreader, I have specialised know-how that enables me to correct your typos and grammatical mistakes, and to smoothen any rough patches in your prose.
After working with me, you’ll see a marked difference in the quality of your manuscripts. Gone are those annoying typos and other little errors. Your prose flows exactly the way it should. Now, nothing will stop your readers from getting fully immersed in your story. This is what you always had in mind!
But don’t take my word for it
I have something far better in mind. Send me a 1000-word sample taken from the middle of your manuscript and I’ll provide you with either a proofread or a line edit. For free. The choice is yours.

Inkarakter provided sensitivity reading for my transgender character in my book, Dissonance. They read the necessary chapters and provided valuable insight and suggestions that I implemented. I really wanted my book to represent a trans man authentically and respectfully, and Inkarakter made that a reality.
– Sarah Emmer, Fantasy & Romance author
I highly recommend sensitivity reading, and fully intend to use this service again!
Daniel did an excellent job of copy editing and proofreading my book Katarina’s Dark Journey.
– MJ Krause-Chivers, Christian & Historical Fiction Author
As a seasoned author, he is well acquainted with the pitfalls of writing and editing. I hired him because his fantasy novels shine with expert storytelling and high quality editing.
Daniel is definitely a perfectionist in every aspect of novel creation. He wants to help writers perfect their craft. Daniel’s specific and detailed feedback helped me spot my problem areas and improve my book. He even provided me with a style sheet. Many editors don’t do that.
If you’re looking for an expert eye and a grammatical grinch, look no further. You can’t go wrong by hiring Daniel at INKarakter Author Services.
Timely and succinct feedback. This editor is experienced and does good quality work that takes a manuscript to the next level.
– Astrid V.J., USA Today Bestselling Author
INKarakter was an integral part of the publishing process for my novel.
– C. Borden, Author
Daniel’s comprehensive line editing, along with pointers added within the editing process, helped clean up my manuscript. I struggle with POV, but Daniel helped me find those mistakes, and made suggestions on how to improve. I also struggle with wordiness. Daniel’s edits and suggestions helped the story with flow, readability, and pacing. I wasn’t able to do the one-on-one video chat with Daniel during the editing process, but immediately following, I did, and he kindly took the time to answer my questions and offered suggestions for me and my future endeavors.
I look forward to working with Daniel and INKarakter again in the future. Highly recommend!
