SERVICES
Developmental/Substantive Editing
Editor is included in developing a book or other project from the initial concept onward, working closely with the author or client to study competing works and create a sharpened product.
Editing includes tackling structural issues such as plot flow, scene and character development, transitions, and dialogue.
Copyediting/Line Editing

Proofreading services
Proofreading includes checking punctuation and grammatical errors introduced after copyediting, such as spelling and inconsistencies in language, style, or formatting.
Sensitivity/Diversity Reading
Diversity reads include reading work and researching details related to the manuscript topic. As a reader, I alert the author to instances of racism, stereotypes, or cultural inaccuracies in the development of characters and the story and discuss how these can be avoided.
