Freelance Light Novel Editor at J-Novel (January 2021-Present)

J-Novel publishes Japanese light novels in English, and I work as a freelance editor for
​some of their light novel series, v-scroll comics, and manga.

Butareba: The Story of a Man Turned into a Pig (Light Novel Series)

"A run-of-the-mill otaku collapses from stomach pain after tasting raw pig liver and wakes up in a whole new world—as a pig, of all things! He’s helplessly trapped in his pen until Jess, a girl who can read minds, comes along and rescues him. Our porcine hero will have to work to keep his boar-ish thoughts to himself, but sweet Jess isn’t deterred. In fact, she wants to spoil this little piggy rotten! By Jess’s side, it seems like life as a hog might not be so bad after all, yet there’s more to this strange fantasy world than meets the eye. Jess is a girl of many secrets, and she’s in danger. But what can a mere pig with no special powers do to protect her from her cruel fate? Will his modern knowledge, quick thinking, and sharp nose be enough to ham it up and save her?"

Starting with the second volume, I've been editing the English translation of Butareba: The Story of a Man Turned into a Pig light novel series (currently translated up to Volume 4, which will be released this August).

Then out of nowhere, she is arrested and sentenced to be executed on the charge of disrespecting the emperor! How will Rimi get out of this mess? Find out in this China-inspired fantasy story about a princess and her love for food surrounded by gorgeous men.
