"Lock up your libraries if you like; but there is no gate, no lock, no bolt that you can set upon the freedom of my mind."

Virginia Woolf

Developmental Editing

This stage of editing occurs in the midst of, or immediately after, writing your first draft. We will help you with:

  • Plot or argument continuity

  • Character design

  • Narrative style

  • Broad grammar & syntax corrections

Proofreading

Proofreading is the final stage of editing before a document is published. This is a great service for self-publishers or printers who want someone to check for:

  • Consistent formatting & spacing

  • Last-minute grammar & spelling errors

  • Table of contents & index accuracy

Line Editing

Line editing is the stage that most people think of as "editing," when you are preparing your document for publishing. We provide notes and guidance on:

  • Grammar & sentence structure

  • Overall narrative voice & imagery

  • Fact-checking

Poetry Editing

Poetry is a different beast than prose, but we're glad to wrangle it for you. We will polish your poetry by exploring your use of:

  • Imagery & metaphor

  • Pacing & meter

  • Emotional impact
