About this Gig

**PLEASE MESSAGE BEFORE YOU ORDER: I'm happy to work on longer projects and to send custom offers where the price more accurately reflects your word count!


This gig offers line edits alone. If you'd like BOTH line and developmental edits, see my other gigs.


My line-level revision approach focuses on:

 

  • Sentence structure
  • Style
  • Diction
  • Tone
  • Specificity
  • Clarity
  • Flow
  • Voice

 

In your critique, you can expect:

 

  • Comprehensive line edit (incl. in-line comments and suggested revisions)
  • An editorial letter at the end of the document that summarizes/expands on my thoughts (250/300/350 words, changes by package).

 

IMPORTANT: I only accept documents in Word format (.docx) OR Google Docs. If using Google Docs, I will make a copy and share it with you upon delivery.

 

NOTES:

 

  • My revision approach focuses on the quality of edits needed to help you achieve your vision, NOT the quantity. I will use my judgement to decide when and where edits are necessary
  • A line edit is NOT a copy edit and focuses on style
  • Longer projects are subject to increased delivery times
Delivery style preference

Please inform the freelancer of any preferences or concerns regarding the use of AI tools in the completion and/or delivery of your order.

    I had a good experience working with Rachel. Her suggestions have given me much to think about as I re-review the technical aspects of storytelling with my future works.
