Copy Editing

A copy edit focuses on grammar, spelling, and punctuation. Therefore, it’s most productive after an author has already done significant revision and now wants an editor to focus on perfecting the language and eliminating typos.

Developmental Editing

Developmental editing delves even more deeply, uncovering the heart of the story you want to tell and finding the best way to tell it. As a result, it's great for authors who want to take their book to the next level by making significant changes.

Line Editing

Line editing is best for authors with a fully completed draft. It corrects basic writing mechanics and also strengthens higher-level elements. Therefore, it is ideal if you need help with characterization, pacing, voice, dialogue, and plot.

Proofreading

You don't want to pay to fix expensive errors readers catch after you're published. Thus, you need a professional editor to proofread your final PDF. The peace of mind you’ll gain knowing an expert is catching every last typo is priceless.

Frequently Asked Questions

That depends on what kind of editing you want: copyediting, line editing, developmental editing, or proofreading. Basically, the more intensive the editing, the more time an editor spends, so the greater the cost. Thus, no matter what services your book gets, you will always know up front how much you’ll have to pay. All our editing services and packages have easy and transparent pricing. For more information, call us.
Manuscript editing is crucial in today's competitive publication market. Professionally edited manuscripts attract more readers, receive better reviews, and sell more copies. Don’t let typos turn off readers.
Our team of award-winning editors have worked for traditional publishers, and some are published authors themselves. In addition, we've worked with a variety of self-publishing services over many years. The Chicago Manual of Style and Merriam-Webster Dictionary are our go-to guides. Our multistep quality-check process ensures accuracy. Rest assured that every one of our experienced professional editors offers world-class book editing services.
Editors do many things. They correct misspelled words and revise grammatical slips. In addition, they point out opportunities to strengthen a character, plot, or argument. Whether it's a developmental edit of a draft or a proofread of a PDF, your editor will take your work to the next level.
We highly recommend our authors going through numerous rounds of editing in order to ensure the manuscript is as clean and well written as possible. Most traditionally published books are edited 6-8 times before publication, so we have rolled out some editorial packages to encompass numerous rounds of editing at a discount to our authors.
