Editing Services

Copyediting

Involves editing your manuscript for grammar, spelling, and punctuation issues. The main goal is to polish everything for clarity and consistency, so I’ll also be checking for timeline and continuity details throughout the story.

  • You’ll receive:

    • a custom style sheet, including details on characters and timeline

    • a marked-up version of your manuscript

    • a clean copy of your manuscript with all changes accepted

  • Copyediting is a focused type of editing that takes place once the story is complete. I’ll work through your manuscript line by line to catch any typos or other errors that might add up.

    Proofreading is the last check to take place after your manuscript has been edited and before it is published. This is the final review for any typos or mechanical, consistency, and formatting issues that may have slipped through the editing process.

Editing Package

The best of both worlds! This package includes a complete copyedit of your manuscript as well as a full proofread once the revisions have been applied.

  • After the copyedit, you’ll receive:

    • a marked-up version of your manuscript

    • a clean copy of your manuscript with all changes accepted

    • a custom style sheet, including details on characters and timeline

    After the proofread, you’ll receive:

    • a marked-up version of your manuscript

    • a clean copy of your manuscript with all changes accepted

  • The benefit of this package is that after copyediting, I’ll already be familiar with your manuscript and preferences by the time the proofread happens. Plus, you won’t need to introduce a new contractor to your manuscript before publication.
