About this service

Summary

This service is your edit for cohesion and clarity, focusing on paragraphs and sentences. My job is to correct your language errors and identify ways your text can be improved. This can involve:

- word choice

- style

- grammar

- syntax

Hiring me as a copy editor is a great way to elevate any text you have. I can provide fresh insight into how your language can be more clear and better serve your purposes for your text.

What's included

Redlined Copy
After the editing process, clients will receive a redlined copy of their text that will include track changes of all low-level changes made by the editor (comma inserted, spelling change, etc.) and comments with higher-level queries (identifying unclear phrasing, clarifying section organization, etc.).
Clean Copy with Comments
After the editing process, clients will receive a clean copy of their text that will include all changes accepted (i.e. changes not visible on the document) but retain comments with higher-level queries (identifying unclear phrasing, noting patterns in writing style, etc.).
Clean Copy without comments
In addition to the first two options, clients can request to receive a clean copy without comments so that no changes are immediately visible on the document.
