Developmental Editing, Line Editing

$60/hour

I recommend a developmental edit first if you haven't gotten feedback on the content and general flow of your book. Developmental edits cover big-picture issues, such as organization, flow, and tone. Includes line editing: removes repetitive or extraneous words, suggests areas to add more detail, and focuses on general readability.

Copyediting

$45/hour

Copyediting covers the four C's—clarity, correctness, consistency, and coherency. This service ranges from light copyediting to heavy copyediting. When we start this phase, I like to connect with the client to get an idea of what level of copyediting they expect.

Proofreading

$30/hour

For manuscripts that have already undergone copyediting and revision. A proofread addresses any spelling, punctuation, or layout errors.

Manuscript Critiques

$60/hour

A critique is an overall review of a manuscript with suggestions for improvement on plot, characters, pacing, and setting for fiction work and organization, structure, tone, and flow for nonfiction works. Rather than line edits, a critique offers overall suggestions and examples of ways the author can improve.

Book Coaching

$60/hour

A book coach works with a client chapter by chapter, offering feedback while the manuscript is in progress. Coaching comes in the form of face-to-face meetings and manuscript review. Authors who feel stuck or aren't sure they're on the right track can get wisdom and encouragement from a book coach.
