FAQ
What types of fiction do you edit?
I edit short stories and excerpts from novels across most genres. If you are unsure whether your project is suitable, feel free to message me before ordering.
What is the difference between proofreading and line-editing?
Proofreading corrects grammar, spelling, and punctuation. Line editing improves clarity, flow, and sentence structure while preserving your voice.
Do you provide fact-checking or historical verification?
I will flag inconsistencies noticed during editing. With an academic background that includes historical study, I am attentive to contextual accuracy where relevant. However, independent research and full fact-checking are not included in this service.
What counts as a revision?
Revisions apply to the original submitted text only. Substantial rewrites or additional content may require a new order.
Can you edit more than 5000 words?
Yes. Please message me before ordering longer manuscripts so I can provide a custom offer.
