FAQ
What is developmental editing?
Developmental editing focuses on improving the overall structure, organization, pacing, clarity, and reader experience of your manuscript. It is different from proofreading because it addresses the "big picture" rather than grammar alone.
What genres do you edit?
I specialize in nonfiction, including self-help, business, leadership, memoir, personal development, coaching, educational, and professional books.
Will you rewrite my manuscript?
This gig focuses on developmental editing and detailed recommendations. If extensive rewriting is needed, we can discuss a custom offer.
Will you correct grammar and spelling?
This service emphasizes structure and content. Minor language issues may be noted, but comprehensive proofreading or copy editing is a separate service.
What file format should I send?
Microsoft Word (.docx) is preferred because it allows comments and suggestions. PDF files can also be reviewed if needed.
