I will line edit a 1,000 word sample of your fiction or nonfiction book

Yes. I can work from a previously edited manuscript and focus on the areas that still need attention. If another editor has already worked on the book, you can share the current version with me so I can understand what has already been done.

Yes. I can work with longer manuscripts, but the scope depends on the word count, manuscript condition, and level of editing required. Please send me your word count and manuscript details before ordering so I can recommend the appropriate option.

You don't need to know the answer before contacting me. Tell me where you are in the writing or publishing process and what concerns you have about the manuscript, and I can help you determine the most appropriate approach.

Yes, depending on how much of the manuscript is complete. For developmental work, it's helpful to have as much of the manuscript completed as possible so I can evaluate the story, structure, pacing, and character development in context.

Yes. If you have a style guide, specific preferences, character names/spellings, terminology, or publishing requirements, send them with your manuscript. I'll use them as reference during the editing process.

Yes. If you have questions about a change or suggestion, you can ask me about it. I want the editing process to be collaborative and clear rather than making changes you don't understand.

Yes, as long as the manuscript is provided in English and is suitable for the selected editing service. If the writing requires substantial language reconstruction rather than standard editing, I'll let you know before starting so we can determine the appropriate scope.
