Final Eyes
Proofreading
The last stop before go-time. I’ll comb through your near-final manuscript for typos, punctuation errors, formatting issues and other surface-level glitches. Think of it as your manuscript’s last safety check, perfect for pre-submission to agents or publishers or for self-publishing.

Polish, Please
Copy edit
Already got your structure sorted? This level smooths out the prose. I’ll check grammar, punctuation, sentence flow, word choice, consistency and tone, making sure everything reads clearly and professionally. It’s the tidy-up your manuscript deserves before heading to a proofreader or publisher.

Take the Wheel
Developmental edit
You’re handing over the full manuscript – and I’m diving in. This deep, structural edit focuses on clarity, organisation and flow. I’ll assess what’s working, what’s not, and how to bring your ideas into sharper focus. You’ll receive detailed notes, margin comments and a tailored editorial letter. Ideal for early drafts, first-time authors or those wanting expert direction.
