Copy Editing $1.00/100 words. Minimum charge $30.

Copy editing includes proofreading but also covers grammar, sentence and paragraph structure, and clarity. Fact-checking can be included if required.

 

Content Editing $1.75/100 words. Minimum charge $50.

Content editing includes all the services of copy editing, but goes further to discuss character development, story arcs, and narrative coherency. In non-fiction it would discuss logical consistency, the strength of the argument, and flow. This service is often followed by proofreading once the author has made large-scale changes to their manuscript. Fact-checking and citation referencing can be included if required.

 

Proofreading $0.75/100 words. Minimum charge $30.

This is a final look-over to correct spelling mistakes, punctuation, formatting issues, and typos on documents that have already been edited and corrected.

We read your book from top to bottom and write a 2-3 page report on issues that should be resolved before publication and to help identify and highlight the manuscript’s strengths. We discuss recurring writing concerns, plot and character inconsistencies, and other large-scale issues. This doesn’t include any line editing, but can be combined with a copyediting or proofreading package. Click here for more information.

 

Citation and Reference Checking Quote required.

We examine the references, quotations, citations, and bibliography of your work to ensure stylistic consistency (in Chicago, MLA, or APA as appropriate). This can be done separately or in combination with copy-editing or proofreading.

Your work is important to us. As such, we will never distribute or share any aspect of your project, in whole or in part, with anyone unless first granted express written consent from you.
