Three tiers,
one flawless manuscript.

Most authors need more than one pass. We offer each editing tier individually or as a comprehensive package — structured in the correct sequential order.

Tier 1

Developmental Editing

The big-picture pass. Your editor examines structure, pacing, character arcs, point of view, dialogue, chapter flow, and overall readability. This is where transformative changes happen.

  • 20–40 page editorial letter
  • Chapter-by-chapter critique
  • 1:1 editorial call included
  • Inline manuscript notes
2
Tier 2 — Most Popular

Copy Editing

Sentence-level refinement. Grammar, syntax, consistency, word choice, tense, tone, and style. Your editor ensures every line reads with clarity and intention.

  • Full tracked-changes Word doc
  • Style sheet creation
  • Consistency checks (names, dates)
  • One revision round included
Tier 3

Proofreading

The final pass before publication. Your proofreader catches every typo, missed punctuation, spacing error, and formatting inconsistency. The last line of defense.

  • Typo & punctuation sweep
  • Formatting & layout review
  • Header/footer & TOC check
  • Print-ready certified clean file
— Our Editorial Team

Editors who've
read a million pages.

Our editors are not generalists. Each one specializes in a specific category — literary fiction, commercial thrillers, narrative nonfiction, memoir, business books — so your manuscript is always in the hands of someone who understands your audience and genre conventions deeply.

Every editor on our team has worked at a traditional publishing house, major literary agency, or both. They bring industry-standard rigor to every project, regardless of its length.

— FAQ

Editing questions,
answered.

Do I need all three editing tiers?+
Not always. If your manuscript is structurally solid, you may only need copy editing and proofreading. We assess every manuscript during the initial review and recommend only the tiers that will genuinely improve your book. We'll never oversell services you don't need.
How long does editing take?+
Timelines vary by manuscript length and editing depth. Copy editing a 60,000-word novel typically takes 2–3 weeks. Developmental editing takes 3–5 weeks. Full-manuscript proofreading is usually 1–2 weeks. Rush timelines are available for an additional fee.
Will my editor change my voice?+
Never. A good editor amplifies your voice — they don't replace it. Our editors use tracked changes and marginal notes so you can see every suggestion and choose what to accept. You remain the author and the final decision-maker on every word.
What style guides do you follow?+
We default to the Chicago Manual of Style for books (standard in US publishing), but can follow AP, MLA, APA, or a custom house style. We create a style sheet for every project to ensure internal consistency throughout.
Is my manuscript kept confidential?+
Absolutely. All editors sign NDAs before receiving any client material. Your manuscript, its contents, and any personal details shared are treated with strict confidentiality. We do not share, quote, or reference client work without explicit written permission.
