Polish Your Written Works with Expert Editing Services

Developmental Editing

If your manuscript needs more than feedback—if it needs restructuring, reshaping, or deep refinement—developmental editing provides the hands-on support you’re looking for. I’ll work directly within your manuscript to reorganize chapters, tighten sections, clarify ideas, and strengthen the overall flow while preserving your unique voice and message.

This level of editing is collaborative and in-depth, giving your book the strong foundation it needs to fully connect with readers.

$0.04–$0.08 per word (varies by complexity)

Line Editing

Line editing helps your writing flow naturally, making sure your sentences are clear, engaging, and easy to read. I’ll fine-tune your phrasing, smooth out clunky sections, and strengthen transitions, so your ideas connect effortlessly.

I’ll make sure your tone is confident and approachable, so your message is clear and compelling. This is perfect if your manuscript is in good shape but needs better flow, sharper wording, and a final polish to make it truly stand out.

$0.04–$0.07 per word

Copyediting

This is where things really come together! I’ll correct grammar, punctuation, and awkward phrasing, while also making sure everything reads smoothly and consistently. I’ll follow your preferred style guide (CMOS, AP, or another) so your book looks and feels professional. Think of this as a deep clean for your writing before it’s ready for the final proofread.

$0.03–$0.05 per word

Manuscript Evaluation

Sometimes you need a professional set of eyes to show you what’s working—and what isn’t—before diving into revisions. With a manuscript evaluation, I’ll read through your work carefully and provide you with a detailed editorial letter that highlights your manuscript’s strengths, points out areas that need development, and offers clear, actionable recommendations for improvement.

You’ll walk away with a roadmap for revision, enabling you to strengthen your writing and take the next step with confidence.

$0.02–$0.03 per word (flat-rate pricing available for shorter works)

Publishing Extras

Author Bio: Your author bio should do more than list your accomplishments—it should help readers connect with you. I’ll write a bio that feels natural, professional, and true to who you are. This bio is perfect for your book cover, website, or marketing strategy. (Starting at $125)

Back Cover Blurb: Your back cover is prime real estate—let’s make it count! I’ll write a short, attention-grabbing blurb that instantly hooks readers and makes them want to dive into your book. Whether you need something intriguing and mysterious or informative and compelling, I’ll tailor it to your book’s vibe. (Starting at $150)
