FAQ
What’s the difference between developmental editing, line editing, and copy editing?
Developmental editing focuses on your story arc, character development, and pacing. Line editing improves sentence flow, word choice, and voice consistency, while copy editing fixes grammar, punctuation, and style alignment.
What will I receive after the edit?
You’ll get a clean, formatted file with tracked changes, comments, and a detailed report explaining every major improvement and suggestion.
Do you edit all genres?
Yes! I edit fiction, nonfiction, memoirs, romance, fantasy, thrillers, and self-help. Each project is tailored to your tone, theme, and target audience.
Can you format my book for Amazon KDP or paperback publishing?
Absolutely. I handle margins, alignment, page numbers, font consistency, and chapter headers to meet KDP and professional publishing standards.
Will you change my writing style or author voice?
Never. I enhance your clarity and flow while keeping your unique voice intact. My goal is to strengthen, not rewrite.
Do you fix spelling, punctuation, and grammar errors?
Yes. Through copy editing and proofreading, I ensure every sentence is clean, accurate, and free of typos or punctuation mistakes.
How is proofreading different from copy editing?
Copy editing improves grammar, punctuation, and consistency. Proofreading is the final polish, correcting typos, spacing, layout, and minor formatting issues.
Can I request both editing and formatting in one order?
Yes! My Premium package includes full developmental editing, proofreading, and book formatting for a complete, publication-ready finish.
How long will it take to complete my project?
Delivery time depends on your word count and chosen package, but I always ensure quality over speed and keep you updated throughout.
Is my manuscript kept confidential?
Yes, your work remains 100% private and secure. I never share or discuss client manuscripts with anyone.
