We offer several editing services for authors pursuing traditional publishing or self-publishing. Choose one of the services below to learn more information and to be able to submit your manuscript for a quote.

All services are available to English and Spanish speakers.

Copyediting

One of the last steps in the editorial process, copyediting is needed on manuscripts that have been completely developed and now require a cleanup on the line-by-line text. A copyedit is ideal for manuscripts not requiring a heavy-handed edit.

Developmental Editing

The best place to start with a book after the final draft has been written is to receive a developmental edit on the manuscript. Developmental edits cover character, story, plot, setting, tone, mood, voice, and other key assets of prose. In nonfiction a developmental edit is key to structure.

Publishing Evaluation

Publishing evaluations are ideal for writers looking to query a literary agent who can then sell their book to a publishing house. Writers will be receive expert advice on whether their query packet is ready for the querying process.

Line Editing

When a manuscript needs a heavier hand at the beginning of the copyediting phrase, a line edit is ideal to clean up the manuscript and address issues with convoluted and wordy text. Line edits are needed to exert more scrutiny than a standard copyedit.
