FAQ
Do you edit both fiction and nonfiction books?
Yes! As an experienced developmental editor and proofreader, I work across all genres. Whether you need a deep structural review of a fantasy novel, a tone check on a children book, or a meticulous polish on a memoir, I adapt my approach to fit your genre's specific standards.
What makes your Christian book editing unique?
I understand that a christian book requires more than just standard grammar checks. I pay close attention to biblical alignment, proper capitalization (He/Him/Scripture), theological consistency, and spiritual tone, ensuring your message resonates deeply with faith-based readers.
What is the difference between copy editing and developmental editing?
Developmental editing focuses on the big picture; pacing, plot holes, character arcs, and structural flow. Copy editing focuses on the sentence level improving clarity, fixing syntax, and correcting grammar. I offer both services depending on what your manuscript needs.
Do you provide beta reader feedback with your editing?
Absolutely. Combining the lens of an editor and a beta reader allows me to give you the best of both worlds. I don't just fix the grammar; I provide honest, constructive feedback on how a real reader will experience your story, pacing, and emotional impact.
Will you rewrite my book or change my author voice?
Never. My goal is to enhance your writing, not replace it. Whether I proofread your final draft or do a heavy line edit, I strictly preserve your unique voice so the story remains completely yours—just polished to a professional standard.
What files do I need to send, and what will I receive?
Please send your manuscript as a Microsoft Word document (.docx). You will receive two files back: one showing every single human correction via Word Track Changes, and a clean, polished copy completely ready for publication.
