I am a developmental and copy editor with over five years of experience collaborating with authors to bring manuscripts to life. I specialize in narrative structure, plot, pacing, and CMOS guidelines....
As your copyeditor, I will focus on clarity, consistency, correctness, and adherence to style while preserving your author's voice. To do this, I will ensure that I provide feedback regarding:
Correct spelling, typos, and misspellings
Fix grammar errors
Check word usage and commonly confused words
Eliminate accidental repetition of words or phrases
Correct verb tense inconsistencies
Correct subject-verb agreement
Fix pronoun agreement and reference issues
Ensure consistent treatment of abbreviations and acronyms
For fiction-specific projects, I will:
Verify consistency of character names, nicknames, and titles
Check character descriptions for contradictions (eye color, age, height, etc.)
