Pleasure working with this keenly exceptional editor. Her brief, clear explanations of why corrections were made were very helpful, all the while, doing so without changing the voice.

Perguntas frequentes
Do you edit manually?
Indeed. I carefully examine each sentence, word by word, and make edits myself. While AI tools and editing programs adhere to general writing standards, precise copyediting and proofreading require a nuanced understanding of language that AI cannot wholly replicate.
What is the Track Changes feature in Microsoft Word?
Microsoft Word's Track Changes feature monitors alterations made to a document. You have the option to either accept or decline these modifications, ensuring you maintain control over the final version.
What will be in my delivery?
You will receive: 1 document proofread and copyedited using track changes, 1 document with all changes accepted and editing marks removed, and helpful feedback.
What is proofreading?
Proofreading is the final step in the writing process, where the proofreader catches sentence-level mistakes before you publish your book. It's how you make sure your writing is polished, mistake-free, and in its final form.
What is copyediting and line editing?
Line editing enhances text flow and clarity, addressing style, tone, and voice. Copyediting ensures correct grammar and consistency while correcting errors without changing the content's meaning.
Can I get a quote?
Absolutely! Just enter the total word count of your editable document in the dropdown field, and you'll get a precise quote right away. This method makes ordering a breeze! And remember, I'm here for you—feel free to message me for a tailored offer that suits your needs.
What type of document should I submit?
Kindly submit your manuscript as one complete Microsoft Word file (.doc or .docx). I use the Track Changes feature in Microsoft Word, allowing you to view my recommended edits.
What if my file isn't in the format of a Microsoft Word document?
If your document is created in Mac Pages or Google Docs, kindly save it as a Word file (.doc or .docx) prior to submission.
Will you format my book to prepare it for publication?
My expertise is in copyediting and proofreading, but there are many excellent book formatters and designers here on Fiverr who can ensure your manuscript is visually polished and true to its genre.
How do I view edits using Word's track changes?
To view edits, open the Word file on your computer, select the Review tab. From the Track Changes area, select the All Markup option from the drop-down menu. NOTE: This does not work on your phone.
