How Does It Work?

Proofreading
Proofreading is the most basic editing service. If you know that your document is close to being ready, then this is the option for you! I will proof your document to ensure that your spelling, grammar, and punctuation are consistent throughout.
Cost: $0.02 per word
Copy Editing
Copy editing involves everything proofreading does, but takes it a couple of steps further. As a copy editor, I would also check your work for improvements such as omitting repetition, creating smooth word flow, and ensuring that your word choices are understandable and accurate. I will also correct errors in hyphenation, capitalization, documentation, and numeral usage. If your copy contains references, endnotes, or a bibliography, I will check each entry for formatting accuracy.
Cost: $0.03 per word
Content Editing
The most detailed editing option is content editing, sometimes known as developmental editing. In addition to proofreading and copy editing your document, I will look line by line to ensure that your manuscript has an effective voice and logical flow of ideas. I will check for run-on sentences, redundant ideas, confusing topic changes, overused words, and unclear language choices. My goal with line editing is to make your work not only grammatically correct, but also enjoyable, understandable, and logical to read. For books and short stories, I can provide extensive notes on the document’s content to help you improve the text.
