I will copyedit your book manuscript
Copyeditor and Proofreader: Fantasy, Historical Fiction, and More
About this Gig
I have over 10 years of experience providing copyediting services for book manuscripts.
Copyediting is performed after developmental and line editing. Its purpose is to enhance and correct the language of the manuscript.
- Correct spelling and grammar
- Correct and improve word choice
- Light rewriting to ensure correctness and clarity
- Light fact and continuity checks where appropriate
Standard copyediting consists of two passes through the manuscript to maximize the odds of catching every issue. However, I also offer a 'half copyedit' of a single pass for those with a tight budget. This is a faster and less expensive option, but with the added risk that some typos might slip through.
Please note that the time to complete listed on these packages is based on the base level of 10,000 words (20,000 words in the case of the premium package), and that longer manuscripts may require more time to complete. Please contact me directly to receive a more accurate time estimate for longer manuscripts.

FAQ
What genres do you specialize in?
I specialize primarily in fantasy and historical fiction. However, I have worked on books in a wide variety of genres, so by all means feel free to come to me with other kinds of manuscripts.
What English dialects do you edit?
I'm American, and thus primarily work in American English. However, I have also worked on manuscripts written in British English without issue.
What writing style guides do you use when editing?
I use the Chicago Manual of Style for the vast majority of my work, and it's the style I'm most familiar with. However, I'm also familiar with the AP, APA, and MLA style guides.
What file formats do you work with?
I'm experienced working with Word, Google Docs, Apple Pages, and PDFs. In the case of PDFs, I use highlighting and comments to mark-up the manuscript rather than directly altering the document.

I highly recommend working with Jeff. I was a little nervous as this is my first manuscript and my first time on fiverr but Jeff did an excellent job in a quick turn around time. He is easy going, a responsive and clear communicator, and a very competent professional.
