Editing, clearly explained.
How do I know which level of editing I need?+
A manuscript review helps identify whether the priority is structure, style, correctness, or final polish before a scope is recommended.
What is the difference between copy editing and proofreading?+
Copy editing addresses language, grammar, consistency, and correctness. Proofreading is the final check for remaining errors after editing and layout.
Will editing change my voice?+
The goal is to strengthen the manuscript without flattening its character. Recommendations are made in service of clarity, consistency, and your intended voice.
Can you edit a manuscript written elsewhere?+
Yes. Editing is available as an individual service regardless of where or how the manuscript was created.
