Copyediting, line editing, substantive
editing, and proofreading
You're an expert in your field, you've spent countless hours conducting
your research, and you're probably even a darn good writer.
Nevertheless, error can—and usually will—rear its ugly head simply
because you know your subject so well.
That may sound strange, but no matter how many times you read back
over your own writing, your eyes will pick up what you expect to see.
That is why a fresh set of eyes, especially a trained set of editorial eyes,
is an essential tool for producing a polished document.
As your editor, I can do a lot more for you than simply catch careless
mistakes: I can improve the overall coherence of your work. To see how,
take a look at my list of services.
So, whether you have correspondence, a dissertation or thesis, a
funding proposal, an academic paper for a peer-reviewed journal, or a
book manuscript, send along a sample portion of your work, and I'll give
you an estimate of what it will cost to make it shine.
