Looking for help developing your prose? Or does it just need a polish? I offer a variety of editing services.

• Developmental/structural editing
  Big picture: content and structure
• Stylistic editing
  Smoothing out the edges: clear, powerful sentences
• Copy editing
  Fine tuning: grammar, punctuation, spelling (copy editing and stylistic editing often go hand in hand)
• Manuscript evaluation
  An assessment of a manuscript’s strengths and weaknesses, along with suggestions for improvement (less intensive than an edit)
• Rewriting
  A complete reworking of a rough draft (more intensive than an edit)
• Proofreading
  A final check before the manuscript is published
