Proof Reading

You're happy with your manuscript and ready to send it off to a prospective publisher, agent or a print-on-demand/self-publishing establishment. Don't let simple mistakes and typographical errors spoil a great project!

All the corrections are written in red ink, this means that you can see exactly what we have done. So you can accept or reject the changes as you see fit, giving you complete control over the whole process.

Content Editing - Book Length

Worried about holes in your plot? Concerned about character development? Or perhaps you're wondering if your non-fiction book is coherent and well-organized? Our content editors will go over your book, checking for spelling, grammar, style, structure, characterization, organization - the works. I'll go over it line by line, make notations on each page and also provide a written report with an overview of the manuscript.

Once again all changes are made in red ink this means that you can see exactly what we have done. So you can accept or reject the changes as you see fit, giving you complete control over the whole process.
