DISCOUNTS FOR FIRST TIME CLIENTS
Your manuscript has a story worth telling. My job is to help make every page clear, polished, consistent, and enjoyable to read while keeping your unique voice intact.
I'm Julia Prescott, a professional book editor with years of experience helping authors refine their manuscripts and prepare their books for publication.
My line editing focuses on sentence flow, word choice, clarity, tone, consistency, grammar, and readability. I also provide copy editing, proofreading, manuscript editing, novel editing, and book formatting for fiction and nonfiction projects.
Whether you're working on a novel, memoir, or another type of manuscript, I'll carefully review your work and make thoughtful edits without taking away what makes your writing yours.
For formatting projects, I can prepare clean, professional layouts suitable for paperback and digital publishing.
If you want a polished manuscript that reads smoothly and looks professional, I'd be happy to help bring your book to the next level. Send me your manuscript and let's get started.
