Editing Services

  • I offer these services for most written content, including any marketing materials, website/digital copy, news content and other articles, and manuscripts.
  • I follow the industry standard of a page, which is equal to 250 words.
  • I use the “Track Changes” feature in Microsoft Word.
  • I can use either the Chicago Manual of Style or Associated Press, or I can follow a custom style guide.
  • I will go over your copy or manuscript twice to ensure accuracy.
  • On request, I offer a free 5-page (1,250-word) sample edit/proofread so you can make sure I’m the right editor/proofreader for you.

Proofreading: $3 per page

This is the best option if you want one last check for any minor errors in your copy or manuscript. With this package I will:

  • Correct mistakes in grammar, spelling, syntax, and punctuation
  • Fix formatting issues and typos

Light Copyediting: $6 per page

This is a more in-depth process than proofreading where I’ll address the mechanics of the copy or manuscript as well as consistency. With this package I will:

  • Correct mistakes in grammar, spelling, syntax, and punctuation
  • Fix formatting issues and typos
  • Ensure the copy follows style guidelines
  • Check for consistency throughout

Heavy Copyediting: $8 per page

This process focuses on grammar, flow, and style. With this package I will:

  • Correct mistakes in grammar, spelling, syntax, and punctuation
  • Fix formatting issues and typos
  • Ensure the copy follows style guidelines
  • Apply the three C’s: Consistency, clarity, and concision
  • Eliminate awkward phrasing and repetitiveness
  • Fix any flow and transition issues between sentence, paragraphs, and ideas
