Developmental Editing
This service offers a close reading of the manuscript. In addition to the manuscript critique, the author will receive a detailed revision memo suggesting changes to the manuscript.
This is the level of edits that will help you get a book in shape to send to publishers, or an article developed and sent out to journal editors.
For a book-length manuscript, the developmental memo will be 25-30 pages of detailed, chapter-level feedback.
-
Style Editing
This service is for authors who want to improve the readability of their manuscript. The author will receive line-level edits focused on sentence structure, style, and narrative. This service is often paired with a developmental edit.
