FAQ
What is the difference between proofreading and line editing?
Proofreading focuses on correcting grammar, spelling, punctuation, typos, and minor inconsistencies. Line editing goes further by improving clarity, sentence flow, readability, word choice, and repetition while preserving your writing style and voice.
Will you preserve my writing style and voice?
Absolutely. My goal is to improve your manuscript without making it sound like someone else wrote it. I make careful edits for clarity, flow, grammar, and readability while preserving your unique voice and intended meaning
What file formats do you accept?
I only accept Microsoft Word documents (.doc or .docx) for editing. This allows me to use Track Changes so you can easily review every edit and receive both a tracked and clean version of your manuscript
Do you offer revisions after delivery?
Yes. One revision is included to address questions or concerns related to the original editing scope. Revisions do not cover new material, additional editing services, or requests outside the scope agreed upon before the order began.
What is included in your line editing service?
My line editing focuses on grammar, punctuation, sentence structure, clarity, flow, readability, awkward phrasing, unnecessary repetition, word choice, consistency, and overall sentence-level polish.
What is not included in your line editing service?
This service does not include substantial rewriting, ghostwriting, developmental editing, major plot or structural changes, adding new scenes or sections, or book formatting. If your manuscript requires something outside the listed scope, please contact me before ordering.
Does your thoughtful feedback include developmental editing?
I may leave occasional comments or suggestions where something stands out while editing, but comprehensive developmental editing or an in-depth developmental report is not included unless agreed upon separately.
Will my manuscript remain confidential?
Absolutely. Your manuscript and all materials you share with me are treated as confidential. I will not share, publish, or distribute your work without your permission.
Do you use AI to edit manuscripts?
No. Your manuscript will be personally edited by me. I do not use AI to generate or rewrite your work, and I do not outsource my editing to third parties.
Should I contact you before placing an order?
For full-length manuscripts or projects with specific requirements, I recommend messaging me first. This allows me to confirm the scope, word count, editing level, price, and delivery time before you order.
