Copy editing for nonfiction authors
Let’s get another set of eyes on your book!
Copy editing
Congratulations! You wrote your book. Now it’s time to prepare it for publication.
Every manuscript goes through several stages of editing before publication. My focus is line editing and copy editing—strengthening clarity, improving flow, correcting grammar, and ensuring consistency while preserving your unique voice.

Books come to me in multiple stages of “completion.” One thousand words from your manuscript can tell me a lot about the style of writing and the level of editing that will be needed.
