Editing
Good writing is at the heart of every memorable story, article, and marketing campaign. Let us polish your prose! We edit just about anything, but here is a sample of what our editors actively work on:
-
academic content: articles for publication, theses, dissertations
-
short stories
-
full-length books (fiction and nonfiction)
-
cover letters and CVs
-
marketing materials
-
newsletters
-
websites and blog posts
We have three levels of editing:
Proofreading
Proofreading covers editing for errors in grammar, punctuation, style, and formatting. We'll make sure your work reads smoothly and is typo free.
Mechanical Editing
Here, in addition to proofreading, we edit for a work's adherence to a specific style guide; we are familiar with the American Psychological Association, 6th and 7th Editions (APA), the Chicago Manual of Style, 16th Edition (CMS), Associated Press (AP), and the American Medical Association Manual of Style, 10th Edition (AMA).
Substantive Editing
This type of editing involves developmental and/or comprehensive edits, and often analysis of content and structure.
Every project is different, and we offer student and nonprofit discounts. Contact us for rates. Please include the page count (in double-spaced, 12-pt, Times New Roman pages with 1-inch margins), the content type, the audience (e.g., an academic journal, the mass market, an association membership), and what type of editing you're looking for.
