INTRODUCTORY RATES AVAILABLE FOR A

LIMITED TIME!

01
line edit

Line editors work at the sentence or paragraph level of a project. Like copyeditors, they correct errors, but their main focus is on improving the language and style of the text. They also take care to address story consistency, like world-building facts, magic systems, and names. Line editing may be performed as a separate service, in conjunction with developmental editing, after big-picture issues have been addressed or in conjunction with copyediting. 

02
copyedit

The role of the copyeditor is as broad as it is important. Copyeditors correct spelling, grammar, usage, punctuation, check cross-references, and prepare the style sheets that guide consistency and accuracy across the manuscript. A copyeditor reviews all aspects of the manuscript, ranging from light (making a notation to the author) to heavy (revising the text). Copyediting may also be performed in concert with line editing.

“Christine is wonderful to communicate with. Her edits illustrate not only her thoughtful attitude towards her clients’ work but her care towards their unique voice.”
