INDIE AUTHOR SERVICES
Editing Services
So you’re an indie author and you’ve written a novel or short story? Congratulations! Completing your project is the first step in achieving your dreams.
Now you need to polish it and get it ready to publish. The tricky part is finding your own errors, which are easy for an author to miss. After all, you know what you intended to communicate to your readers, so it’s hard to notice a misspelled word or an unclear concept.
That’s where the editor comes in.
I edit fiction for indie authors. I can find errors and help you fix them to get your story ready for the world to enjoy!
In addition, I typically provide tips for
improving your work. Most editors will point out what is wrong with your work,
but won’t necessarily tell you how to fix it. As a “teaching editor”, I offer
suggestions for quick fixes to make your story and your writing effective.
But what kind of editing do you need?
Developmental Editing might be the best place to start, to make sure your story works as a story. I can find plot holes, errors in logic, inconsistent or unbelievable behavior in characters, and more!
$.04-.049 per word
Line Editing / Copy Editing is a
combination of editing that looks at spelling, grammar, and punctuation, along
with the story’s flow and logic. This stage of editing makes certain that
everything is being communicated clearly and correctly.
$.03-.039 per word
Proofreading is often a final stage of editing, to catch any remaining errors in spelling, grammar, and punctuation before your story gets printed.
$.02-.029 per word
Contact me for a FREE Sample Edit of the first 5 pages when you provide your full manuscript, or the first 500 words of a short story!
Coaching Services
If you’re at the development stage of your story idea, I can arrange a meeting with you to discuss how to fix story problems and keep your story moving forward. Let’s talk about how to make your story the best it can be! Rates start at $18 for a 30-minute session or $32 for a 1-hour session.
