Editing Services
Editing services are available for academic research papers and articles, nonfiction and fiction manuscripts and short-form creative pieces. I also offer editing for businesses (e.g., emails blasts and website content).
Contact me if your project is not listed.
If you're still unsure of what type of editing you need after reading the descriptions below (or what editing is), then visit the How it Works page for more info or email me with questions!
Types of Editing
Check a box to choose.
Line Editing
Line editing focuses on readability.
Style, voice and quirks vary from author to author. Line editing ensures that these nuances remain intact but don't hinder readability. Line editing combs through sentence by sentence to improve word usage, sentence structure, overall language and cohesion.
Developmental Editing
I offer this type of editing only for short-form creative pieces such as short stories, essays, oracle decks, novellas, etc.
Developmental editing focuses on character and plot development, delivery of ideas and themes, order of presentation, plot gaps, trimming of redundancies, etc. You need developmental editing if you are still in the draft phase.
"If developmental editing helps shape a story and copyediting polishes it, line editing is what makes the writing come alive."
