• Microsoft Word document- for eBook only or to revise
• EPUB file- for eBook
• PDF file- for paperback/hardbackAs part of the process, I will provide three distinct style options for chapter headings and font selections, allowing you to choose the design that best fits your vision.
To ensure a high-quality and detail-oriented result, please allow up to seven (7) days for the full formatting of your manuscript.Manuscripts (up to 150,000 words): approximately 5 days ~ $275


EDITING
I offer comprehensive editing services designed to elevate your manuscript to a professional standard. My editing process goes beyond correcting surface errors and focuses on improving clarity, flow, structure, and overall readability while preserving your unique voice and intent.
During editing, I carefully review your work for sentence structure, consistency, tone, word choice, and organization. I provide thoughtful revisions and suggestions to strengthen your writing, enhance coherence, and ensure your message is communicated effectively.This is the longest process in the final stages of publishing.Manuscripts (up to 150,000 words): approximately 10 days ~ $325

I offer professional proofreading services as the final stage in the editorial process. This involves a thorough review of your writing prior to publication or distribution, with careful attention to detail.
My focus is on identifying and correcting surface-level issues, including spelling errors, grammatical inconsistencies, punctuation mistakes, typographical errors, formatting irregularities, and minor wording concerns.
Unlike editing, which may involve substantive revisions or restructuring, proofreading is dedicated to refining the completed text—ensuring it is clear, accurate, consistent, and polished to a professional standard.Turnaround time is determined by the length of your manuscript:
• Short manuscripts (up to 75,000 words): approximately 5 days ~ $200
• Standard manuscripts (up to 120,000 words): approximately 7 days ~ $250
• Long manuscripts (up to 150,000 words): approximately 9 days ~ $300



In addition to editing, I offer an optional manuscript critique for authors seeking deeper, big-picture feedback. This critique provides a detailed evaluation of key elements such as plot development, pacing, character development, dialogue, and overall structure.
You will receive constructive, actionable insights highlighting strengths as well as areas for improvement, helping you refine your manuscript with clarity and confidence.
Turnaround time varies depending on the length and complexity of your manuscript, and I am committed to delivering thorough, high-quality results within an agreed-upon timeframe.Add a critique along with another service for only $50.
