Editing and Proofreading Service


Confidential, Professional, Affordable, and a Must Before Publishing! 

Picture
Editing and proofreading are essential parts of the writing process if you want your work to look professional and enhance the clarity of your ideas and visions. Many authors feel they can self-edit their books. However, as an author and book editor, I know that self-editing a book is almost impossible. As the writer, you are simply too close to your work to spot even the most elementary mistakes and inconsistencies. After writing, rewriting, and revising, the writer's brain easily misses typos, punctuation, and grammatical issues. This is precisely why every writer needs at least a second set of eyes to look over their work for even the most common mistakes. Most writers know exactly what they mean to say but struggle to write so that most readers will easily understand what they are saying. My goal as your book editor is to maintain your unique voice as an author. I value your work and your privacy. Your work is safe with me. I will not share, sell, or distribute any information or item you send me.     ​

No book is perfect; however, hiring a professional editor to tidy up the loose ends can help you get a lot closer. The goal at WDP is to help ensure your copy is presented as professionally as possible. If you are looking for an affordable, experienced editor and proofreader, WDP has you covered. Trusting WDP with your manuscript might seem like a big commitment, but so is publishing a book. Do yourself and your book a favor, make the investment, and get your book polished before it’s published.

Editing Services

Substantive/Line Editing: In addition to fixing grammar errors, I work line by line to improve the style and flow, checking for run-on sentences and unnecessary or overused words, information redundancies, character inconsistencies, inconsistent phrasing, and more. This level of editing is in-depth and may include rearranging sentences to improve readability. Line editing is where most authors should start.
​
Copyediting: Copyediting is a semi-light form of editing that takes a sentence-level look at the project. With copyediting, I review your work and fix errors in spelling, grammar, punctuation, clarity, ambiguity, and repetition. For Christian writers, I also check Bible verses to ensure they are correct and point out any potential legal liabilities we come across to help ensure your manuscript does not libel others.
​
Proofreading: In proofreading, I look for the smaller things that have slipped through previous stages of editing, such as missing words, typos, punctuation errors, and spelling errors. Proofreading is for documents that have already been edited. 
Picture
The completion time depends on my work schedule and the complexity of your work and does not include the time needed for author revision.  To retain my editing service, there is a 50% down payment (based on estimate) to reserve the block of time for your project due before editing begins. ​   ​
Rates
I charge per word, so it's easy to estimate how much my service will cost you. Simply multiply your word count by the rate to estimate the cost.
  • Substantive editing = $.015 per word
  • Copyediting = $.012 per word
  • Proofreading = $.008 per word
For a firm price, I will need to look at your manuscript to see which level of editing you will need.
