What We Do

For your fiction or nonfiction book, business writing, website, social media, article, or academic paper, we offer the following editorial services.

Developmental editing/project coordination – the concept, plan, and process of your project from beginning to end, whether you’ve started or not. Consulting, coaching, or for example in the case of a website or book, conceptualizing and planning.

Substantive or content editing – ensuring that your text is readable, the manuscript’s structure and organization are sound and logical, and the content flows with good order and clear transitions.

Copyediting – checking for consistency in tone, focus, and style and correcting sentence structure problems, thought order, word usage, and major grammar errors.

Proofreading – fine tuning, double checking grammar, spelling, punctuation, style and proper noun consistency, and catching any errors otherwise missed along the way.

Please send two or three sample pages through the contact page for a cost estimate.

We specialize in general topic, business, and creative content; for scientific, medical or highly technical projects, we can provide proofreading and review for layperson readability.
