How it Works
Contact me with as much information as you can, and I will get back to you with questions and a quote.
If your project is a manuscript or thesis, we'll schedule a video call to meet and discuss in greater detail what you need. I will also invite you to send a 1,000-word sample of your work. (This is for you to gauge whether you like my editing style and for me to understand you better!)
Once complete, I will return the edited version of your project either in one email, or, in the case of manuscripts and theses, in several parts.
What is editing exactly, and why do you need it?
edit
verb
gerund or present participle: editing
Editing is the preparation of written material for publication or submission.
example of line editing
I hope the example of line editing in the video helps you understand the importance of editing, and maybe it sheds light on the type of editing you need. I focus on academic editing but am experienced in nonfiction and fiction editing as well.
Now, let's discuss developmental editing. I only offer this type of editing for short-form creative pieces, i.e., short stories, oracle decks, essays, etc. The above video is not what to expect with this type of editing. Instead, we would discuss story elements, pacing, and character development and track plot holes and inconsistencies. At this stage of writing, the theme and moral of the story should be clear. If they are not, then a rewrite of sections may be suggested.
