Editing Services

• Structural Editing

During a structural edit, I make detailed suggestions to optimise the plot, pace, character development, coherence, and clarity of your manuscript.

• Copy Editing

During a copy edit, I refine sentence structures, correct grammatical errors, and ensure consistency without altering your authorial voice.

• Proofreading

During a proofread (the final stage of the editing process) I methodically inspect the manuscript for spelling, grammar, and punctuation errors.

• Sensitivity Reading

During a sensitivity read, I analyse and report on the themes and content pertaining to First Nations and/or LGBTQIA+ themes in your manuscript, ensuring they are accurate and culturally safe representations (this is my most sought-after service).

Please note: my fees are tailored to the scope of your project. Reach out today to arrange an obligation free consultation and quote.
