Book editing that makes your book better — without making it someone else's.

Professional book editing: developmental, line and copy editing plus proofreading. Tracked changes, fixed quotes agreed upfront, your voice preserved.

The levels

Which level of editing does your manuscript need?

the book level

Developmental editing

Structure, pacing, argument, plot, character. The big questions: does chapter three belong at the start? Does the middle sag? Is the promise of the introduction kept? You get an editorial letter plus chapter-by-chapter notes.

the sentence level

Line editing

Rhythm, clarity, word choice, transitions. The difference between prose that's correct and prose that moves. All suggested changes tracked for your approval.

the correctness level

Copy editing & proofreading

Grammar, punctuation, consistency, formatting slips, and the typos that survive every earlier pass. The final gate before readers see your book — because a one-star review over typos is the cheapest disaster to prevent.

not sure which you need? send us a sample chapter — we'll tell you honestly, even if the answer is "just a proofread."

How it works

Fixed quotes, tracked changes, your call

Quote before commitment

We review a sample and your word count, then quote a fixed price in writing. From $560 (£450), scaling with length and level. No hourly meters running.

Every change visible

Edits arrive as tracked changes with comments explaining the why. You accept or reject each one — it's your book, and the contract says so.

Same guarantee

Editing projects run under the same milestone guarantee and delivery-discount terms as everything else we do.

Questions

Asked and answered

How much does eBook editing cost?

From $560 (£450) depending on length and the level of editing needed. We quote a fixed price after seeing a sample — agreed in writing before any work begins.

What's the difference between developmental, line and copy editing?

Developmental editing fixes the book — structure, pacing, argument, plot. Line editing fixes the sentences — rhythm, clarity, word choice. Copy editing and proofreading fix correctness — grammar, consistency, typos. Most manuscripts need them in that order.

Can you edit a book I wrote myself?

Yes — self-written manuscripts are a large part of our editing work. You keep your voice; we make it the best version of itself. Ask for a sample edit so you can judge before committing.

Will editing change my voice?

No — that's the difference between editing and rewriting. Our editors strengthen what you wrote; changes are tracked so you accept or reject every one.
