Editing and Manuscript Development
If you are looking for someone to help improve the readability of an essay, story or longer work or to ensure that the grammar and syntax of your work are beyond reproach, you’ve come to the right place!
I accept both fiction, non-fiction and academic manuscripts. My per-page rate depends on the level of copy-editing required. Below is a rough guide to the different 'levels' of editorial intervention I undertake.
Please contact me via the form to set up a meeting to discuss your project.
Fiction
Level 1
Basic copy-editing
Liasing with the author to improve the overall quality of the text, both in terms of style and content. For fiction, this would include brainstorming how to make a plot more cohesive or a character more engaging. For non-fiction and academic texts, this would include basic fact-checking, style improvements and helping to make an argument clearer and
more cohesive.
Level 2
Content editing
Liasing with the author to improve the overall quality of the text, both in terms of style and content. For fiction, this would include brainstorming how to make a plot more cohesive or a character more engaging. For non-fiction and academic texts, this would include basic fact-checking, style improvements and helping to make an argument clearer and
more cohesive.
Level 3
Intensive development editing
Liasing with the author to improve the overall quality of the text, both in terms of style and content. For fiction, this would include brainstorming how to make a plot more cohesive or a character more engaging. For non-fiction and academic texts, this would include basic fact-checking, style improvements and helping to make an argument clearer and
more cohesive.
