Your story is ready to publish, and you're an expert at self-editing, but you need a professional to correct grammar, punctuation, spelling, and consistency with minimal feedback.


What is a Copyedit?

A Copyedit focuses on the technical aspects of writing, addressing errors and perceived errors in grammar, spelling, punctuation, and consistency. It ensures your manuscript adheres to standard publishing conventions while eliminating distractions so your story reads seamlessly.

You should consider a Copyedit after your story is fully developed, structurally sound, and as clean as possible through line edits or extensive self-edits.

A note on scope: A Copyedit focuses strictly on technical accuracy and consistency. It does not focus on overall story development.
