Expert editing
help for
authors of scientific and other technical materials who need to
reach lay readers, including authors who use English as a second
language (ESOL).
Proofing and
copy editing for
correct English usage, grammar, punctuation, and spelling.
Revising, rewriting, and reorganizing for
• clarity, conciseness, accuracy, and stylistic consistency.
• readability, language level, voice, and tone appropriate for
the intended audience and purpose.
• organization, logic, flow, and general format and layout --
overall, within sections and subsections, and at the paragraph and
sentence levels.
You can provide your manuscript either as a hardcopy printout or as hardcopy plus computer file. You can receive the edited manuscript as a markup of the hardcopy, or as a revised computer file, or both. Editing almost always requires conferences with the author by phone or e-mail in order to make sure that changes which clarify material or remove ambiguity are accurate and preserve the author's intent.
Fees for editing are based on the length of the manuscript
and the degree of proofing, editing, and revising required.
Rush deadlines also affect cost.
