EDITING SERVICESWe
hold a high level of expectation for the books we edit. When you work with our
team, you will receive a professionally edited book that you can shop to a literary
agent or publisher or self-publish. Our topnotch editors have
edited scores of books that have been published by the big publishing houses in
New York, including Random House and Simon & Schuster. Please review their
credentials and see if
one stands out to you, or we will choose the editor who we believe would be the
best fit for your project. To figure out an approximate cost
for your project, please consider the following: The
process for editing non-fiction is as follows: Once an editor has been assigned
to your project, she will briefly look over your manuscript (electronic file),
and provide you with an estimate for Phase 1. Phase 1 consists
of a Read Through of the entire book and a Written Analysis. If the chapters,
or parts of chapters, are out of order and the sequencing is off, the editor will
need to do at least one round of developmental editing to put the sections in
their rightful order before she can do the line editing where she will polish
the text. At the end of Phase 1, the editor will provide an
estimate for Phase 2, which consists of any necessary developmental editing (putting
things in their proper sequence), followed by the line editing (polishing text). Phase
2 We can usually edit 4-6 pages per hour when polishing text.
Putting material in its proper order can be timely. Everybody's writing is different,
which means that some projects will go faster than others, depending on the strength
of the writing. If you believe that your material is in its
right sequence, the editor will skip the Read Through and Written Analysis in
Phase 1 and jump into polishing the text. After the book has been edited, we recommend
a final proofreading round with one of our proofreaders to make sure all typos
have been caught and that punctuation is correct. The
process for editing fiction is as follows: First, the editor will read through
the entire manuscript. She will then provide an analysis of the material that
states what the book needs. At this point, an estimate for the work, including
developmental editing, character development, and line editing can be given. All
editing services are paid upon retainer in increments. Please contact
us for rates and details. We accept all major credit cards and checks.
