Editing

Is your book ready for your ideal audience? Let us help you add the finishing touches with expert proofreading, consistency checking, copy editing, and/or developmental editing. If you are just starting out and need support organizing your ideas for your book, we recommend author coaching. If you already have a manuscript, read on for how we can create a project plan to get your book to the finish line.

How do we work?

Let us help you add the finishing touches to your book with proofreading, consistency checking, copy editing, and / or developmental editing. If you are just starting out and need support organizing your ideas to create a roadmap for your book, we recommend a brainstorming session. If you already have a manuscript, the four services we provide correspond to the four phases of editing a manuscript. With developmental editing, we review and organize the entire book. Once the general structure of the manuscript is decided upon, we will re-check the logical consistency of the paragraphs (copy editing), as well as the consistency of diagrams, graphics, references, and indexes (consistency checking). Finally, proofreading ensures that no errors are missed. With our publishing services, the product can then be made ready for release or turned into a presentation.

To save time and for you to track our changes, we might propose converting your document into a different format. For more information about input and output formats, check our publishing project. There, we offer conversions from a variety of formats to LaTeX, Google Docs, or Word, all platforms that support tracking of changes which you can accept or reject.
