Developmental Editing

Your ideas are the crux of your story, and in this early stage of the editing process, I will help you bring them into focus.

I will analyze your:

  • plot structure

  • character development

  • pacing and flow

  • world building

  • thematic strength

  • any other big picture elements

Deliverables include: comments on the document and an editorial letter (length depends on the project, but they are typically 79 pages).

~$27 per 1000 words

Stylistic Editing

As much as storytelling is about plot and character, it is also about tone, purpose, and clarity.

No matter what your writing style is, I’ll help you craft sharper sentences, without compromising your voice.

Deliverables include: comments on the document with Tracked Changes and a clean document.

~$3.50 per 1000 words (only available as a copy edit add-on)

Beta Reading

If you’re looking for early feedback on your manuscript, beta reading is the perfect choice. I’ll offer honest and constructive comments from a reader’s perspective.

I’ll also provide comments on particular elements you’d like me to focus on. This could be anything from dialogue to world building—or both!

Deliverables include: comments on the document and a reader’s report (length depends on the project, but they are typically 23 pages).

~$7 per 1000 words

Fact Checking

To ensure the information presented in your is piece accurate, I will research the facts that appear in your content against multiple reliable sources, correcting errors and flagging issues that can't be confirmed.

Deliverables include: comments on the document (with linked sources) and a fact checking outline.

~$27 per 1000 words

Copy Editing

Spelling, grammar, and punctuation might be little details, but they make all the difference when it comes to having a polished piece.

I’ll make sure your work is free from inconsistencies and errors so your reader is focused on your story, not that pesky typo or inconsistent verb tense.

Deliverables include: comments on the document with Tracked Changes and a clean document.

~$20 per 1000 words

Authenticity Reading

I’ll read your manuscript to ensure the language, characters, and general content are free from bias toward and misrepresentation of the LGBTQ+ community, particularly from a lesbian woman’s perspective.

I do not speak for everyone in the community, but my lived experiences and understanding of the literary industry will offer insight into creating respectful, diverse content.

Deliverables include: comments on the document and an authenticity editorial letter (length depends on the project, but they are typically 23 pages).

~$7 per 1000 words

Proofreading

During this final stage of editing, I will ensure your content is free from formatting, typographical, and grammatical errors before your content is published.

Deliverables include: Markup on the document.
