Content Editing/Plotting
This is where we look at the big picture of your story, including plot structure, character development, pacing, inconsistencies, character motivation, and overall reader experience. We can help strengthen your opening so it hooks readers and develop an ending that leaves them eager for the next book.
Have an idea for a book but aren't sure where to start? We also offer plotting and brainstorming support.
Content Edit: $0.030 per word
An 80,000-word novel runs about $2,400.
Plotting sessions are quoted individually.
Line/Copy Editing
This is where we work at the sentence level to strengthen your prose while preserving your unique author voice. We'll smooth awkward or clunky sentences, address repetition and filtering, identify POV and verb-tense issues, and correct grammar, spelling, punctuation, and usage.
Line/Copy Edit: $0.025 per word

Proofreading: $0.015 per word
An 80,000-word novel runs about $1,200.
