I will help copyedit your fiction manuscript
About this Gig
This editing stage, regardless of the package selected, is meant to help authors by looking at a line by line view of their manuscript with my suggestions. Authors should select this in later drafts of their manuscript and if they're manuscript has already undergone a substantial developmental edit. This edit is most helpful in later stages, as this edit is meant for drafts that are closer to being queried or published than they aren't.
This is NOT for manuscripts that are in early stages, where you're still figuring out the story. Manuscripts at that stage would likely benefit more from a developmental edit.
If you're not sure, please feel free to reach out for a consultation! All manuscripts will undergo a consultation process (2,500 words or less) to see if we're a good fit as an editing team.

FAQ
How do I know if I'm ready for a line editing package?
The best way to know if you're ready for line editing is to ask yourself what drafting stage you're at. If you're working with only a draft 1 or 2, then that's likely developmental. If you're at draft 4 or 5, then that's likely ready for line editing.
What does line editing mean?
Line editing is when your editor goes line by line in your manuscript and looks for clarity and consistency, often alongside the Chicago Manual of Style. This is to help maintain the author's voice, while ensuring the story is clear for its future readers.
