Editing Services

I have picked up a lot of knowledge from the generous authors and editors who have invested in me over my writing journey. Now I want to pass this knowledge on to you through my editing services. While I take on manuscripts throughout the entire year, I can take on more projects during the summer.

Content Edit

In a content edit, I edit:
  • Story concept (Will your concept draw in readers? Is it believable? Does it have the makings of a full story?)
  • Plot structure (Is your story hitting the right beats in the right places? Is the pacing right?)
  • Character arcs (Are your characters changing over the story? Is the pacing right?)
  • Theme (Do I know what you're trying to say? Is it overbearing or too subtle?)

Line Edit

In a line edit, I edit:
  • Plot structure (finetuning the beats of the story)
  • Character arcs (finetuning the character's change)
  • Theme (finetuning manifestation of theme)
  • Stylistic errors (Are any sentences or passages confusing? Should anything be reworded?)
  • Plotholes (Does anything in the story not line up?)

Copy Edit

In a copy edit, I edit:
  • Grammar
  • Spelling
  • Capitalization
  • Punctuation
  • Typos.

Content Guidelines

I have set up some personal guidelines for myself in my reading to keep myself from reading things that I don't want in my head. I apply those guidelines to my editing as well. Please do not send me any manuscripts that contain:

  • Dark creatures (demons, zombies, werewolves, ghosts, vampires, etc.)
  • Dark magic, witchcraft, wizardry, or sorcery
  • Graphic/disturbing depictions of physical abuse or self-harm
  • Horror manuscripts
  • Language
  • Sexual language or content
  • Violent/immoral choices that are glorified or have no consequences
  • Violence that is gory or disturbing (anything above a PG-13 rating)

I reserve the right to reject any manuscript at my discretion if I am uncomfortable with the content. If you have any questions about whether your content falls within these guidelines, shoot me a comment below and I'll help you out with that. You can also check out my reviews in the Rachel's Reads section to get an idea of what I'm comfortable with within each genre.

Payment

I charge $5.00 per hour spent editing the manuscript. (This applies for content edits, line edits, copy edits, or any combination of the three.) An average novel (75,000 words) would cost at average $60.00 (depending on how much time the edit took). However, I also accept shorter or longer manuscripts as well.

How to Send Your Manuscript
