Developmental & Line Editing

About

Editing terminology can vary and overlap. The descriptions below are meant to give you a general sense of how we might work together on your existing manuscript.

*Editing projects are on a rolling basis and booked two to three months in advance. Reach out to hold a spot. 

Developmental Edit

A close read of your manuscript with a 10-12 page editorial letter, margin notes, and detailed suggestions on how to improve specific passages and recurring issues. Addresses structure, flow, voice, setting, characters, themes, and dialogue. Some sentence-level feedback, but developmental edit does not entail line editing, as the writing is expected to grow and change. 60-minute follow-up Zoom or call.

Content &
Line Editing

Polishes the paragraph, sentence, word choice, and flow. This service benefits the writer who has already worked through several drafts of their manuscript and is seeking a final “uplift.” 60-minute follow-up Zoom or call.
