Whether you have an idea or a nearly finished manuscript, we'll make your
publication the best it can be. We offer comprehensive editorial services, as
well as design, graphics, and publishing
Editorial Services
Everything starts with your content. Before your book can be laid out and put
into its final format, you need to be sure what's inside is solid. Every
editorial project is unique, but in general there are four levels of assistance
we can provide:
Outline Review
If we are involved from the beginning, we can help you produce better
publications. We can assist you in identifying missing pieces and parts that
might be left out that would strengthen the whole. Involving us from the start
will save a great deal of effort later, particularly at the developmental edit
stage.
Developmental Edit
A developmental edit looks at your publication from a high level. Have you
included all the important pieces? Are there parts that could be omitted or
moved? Is the tone right for your audience? Is the point of view consistent? A
developmental editor will ask questions that are better answered before your
publication is offered to its audience. Developmental editing is much more
effective if you start your publication with a carefully considered outline
Copy Edit
A copy editor goes through your publication from start to finish, improving
grammar, syntax, and paragraph structure. The purpose of a copy edit isn't to
make your work conform to some arbitrary set of composition rules. It makes your
publication easier to read. No publication should ever go out the door without
one.
Proofreading
Proofreading is the final quality check of your publication. The purpose of the
proofread is to catch the small things the copy edit might have missed: stray
punctuation, misspellings, incorrect homophones and homonyms, etc. It's another
essential step for a polished publication.
Publishing Services
We offer everything you need to publish in the medium of your choice. We can
design an interior layout, create graphics, such as cover art, and provide
resources to print your book or put it in an attractive and useful ebook format.
