Copy Editing
Get clearer, more concise, and more consistent.
Correct your spelling, typos, punctuation, grammar, hyphenation, numbers, capitalization errors, and internal inconsistencies. Polish your prose.
Ideal for most authors. For traditional publishing and self-publishing. Perfect for those who want their manuscript fine-tuned to impress readers and to get ready to publish.
Line Editing
Tighten your prose, pacing, and flow.
Make it more concise; improve the flow/transitions between paragraphs, sections, and chapters; get suggested fixes for when the writing is confusing, unclear, repetitive, bland, or poorly paced.
Great for first-time authors especially, for those with a broad audience, and for those who want to improve their writing style.
