Whether you need big picture changes or you need little typos hunting out, my editorial services can support you and your writing!

• Developmental editing
  Adjustments across the entire manuscript that are tailored to supporting your story. This could be any aspect of your story, including plot, narrative or characterisation.
• Copyediting
  Checking for consistency, clarity, conciseness and correctness. This level of editing is great for when you are happy with your story but want to tighten up your prose and iron out any wrinkles. Copyediting will also deal with spelling, punctuation and grammar issues.
• Typesetting and formatting
  Whether you are creating a print book, ebook or both, I can use work with you to design beautiful interior pages that draw your reader in.
• Proofreading
  Ready to print? (Or whatever the ebook equivalent is!) Proofreading is the final check before publishing and ensures that all spelling, punctuation and grammar are correct as well as formatting and page layout elements are right too.
  
• Beta reading
  What’s working? What’s not working? How does the story impact the reader? As a trained editor, I can provide detailed and expert feedback on your novel. This can be especially useful for authors not able to afford a full development edit.
• LGBTQ+ authenticity reading
  Writing about the LGBTQ+ community? Don’t want to offend? I will read your manuscript, or passages from it, to ensure that you avoid upsetting, hurting or damaging the LGBTQ+ community.
