EDITING SERVICES

Editing time varies from writer to writer.


For this reason, we offer a sample edit to determine the amount of time and work your manuscript will need. Please contact us at editor@plot2published.com to request your sample edit and quote.



  
   Proofreading


Your book is pretty much complete. It's a "good read" and you just want to clean up the text for printing.

We'll read your book and correct the following:
  • spelling
  • capitalization errors
  • typos
  • punctuation errors
  • minor grammatical errors
  • formatting

Here's where we help you turn a good story into a great one. We'll examine your style, organization, sentence structure, word choice and more. 

In addition to proofreading we'll look at:
  • sentence structure
  • word choice
  • repetitiveness
  • grammatical choices
  • clarity and sense
  • awkward phrasing
  • rhythm

Some books have issues embedded in the structure. We'll look for loose ends, poor characterization and plotting, and other issues that keep a book from realizing its full potential. 
In addition to a full edit we'll also look at:
  • structural choices
  • characterization
  • plot consistency
  • overall structure
  • loose ends to tie up
  • momentum
