OUR EDITING SERVICES
Everything you need to polish your manuscript to perfection.
Let’s face it. Editing services can be expensive. We always suggest that to save money, you first take your manuscript to a friend who is a proficient writer/reader or an English teacher, for example, who will work through your manuscript with you to help identify areas that may require substantive editing and rewriting, After you have addressed those areas, it’s time for us to have a look. Keep in mind that almost all accepted manuscripts require some level of editorial service.
Free Assessment
