copyediting

Ready to prepare your manuscript for self-publication or to send to a literary agent? A professional copy edit ensures your work is submission-ready.

Our copy editors provide a detailed review that goes far beyond basic proofreading. They'll examine your manuscript for:

  • Technical accuracy: grammar, spelling, punctuation, and syntax

  • Consistency: maintaining uniform style choices throughout your work

  • Continuity: ensuring your characters, plot points, and settings remain consistent

  • Factual accuracy: checking that real-world information is correct

  • Legal review: identifying any potential liability concerns

As a writer and publisher, inaccuracy spells the end of your business. At very competitive prices, the editors at The Book Edit are an essential part of the success of our small publishing company. They want us to succeed and support us to do so. Thanks, Emily.
