Copy Edit

This service focuses on internal consistency and accuracy, and myriad other fine points at the confluence of craft tributaries. As your guide I’ll help further hone your craftsmanship paying special attention to small details on your way to the final stages of your publishing journey, with the goal of keeping readers in their hammocks discovering their way to your story delta without distraction.

Two passes of in-document tracked changes in Microsoft Word focused on the internal consistency and accuracy of your story by addressing not only punctuation, spelling, and grammar, but the myriad small details that add up to a strong and impactful whole.

Custom PDF style sheet documenting the important points of your manuscript styles, story world and character details, timelines, author preferences, and continuity.

x1 one-hour consultation to review and discuss questions, ideas, or any other support pertaining to the copy edit. To be redeemed during the service, or within 60 days after the project’s end. Consultation will be recorded upon request.

This service takes roughly 5-6 weeks to complete. If you decide upon an editing package (see below for details) you will have two weeks to review and complete the suggested revisions and clarify any questions before we move on to the next editing service. I dedicate this amount of time to make sure the copy edit service is providing abundant value to my author clients.
