Book Editing Services

Professional editing to polish your manuscript before publication.

What Professional Editing Does for Your Manuscript

After months of writing, you lose the ability to see your own blind spots. A professional editor identifies structural weaknesses, tightens your argument, and fixes the grammar and style issues that distract readers.

Developmental Editing

Big-picture feedback on structure, argumentation, clarity of thesis, and logical flow.

Copy Editing

Line-by-line improvement of clarity, consistency, grammar, and style.

Proofreading

Final polish to catch typos, spelling errors, and formatting inconsistencies.

Technical Editing

Specialized editing for nonfiction, academic, and technical content.

Which Level Do You Need?

Developmental Editing — Your manuscript is complete but you're not sure if the argument holds together. You want feedback on structure, logical flow, and whether your book achieves its goals.

Copy Editing — Your content is solid but the writing needs refinement. Sentence-level improvements to clarity, flow, and consistency.

Proofreading — Your manuscript has been edited and you need a final check before publishing. Catches remaining typos and formatting issues.
