Services And Rates
Below are my rates for basic services. I offer discounts for clients wanting multiple rounds of editing, and can combine some types of editing into one round for certain manuscripts. Check out the packages I offer or contact me to discuss directly. 
Proofreading

Identify and correct any errors in grammar, spelling, punctuation, syntax, tense, etc. For books ready to go straight to the press. 


Copyediting

Editing that looks for mechanical errors, mistakes, repetition, and language inconsistencies, as well as ensuring fact accuracy, continuity, and content consistency. 


Line Editing

A line-by-line edit of your manuscript critiquing and offering suggestions on sentence structure, diction, syntax, tone, emotion, pacing, flow, extraneous words and sentences, and more. 


Developmental Editing

Also known as structural editing, developmental editing looks at your book as a whole: plot, character, themes, story/chapter/paragraph flow, audience appeal, readability, and more. 



$90 flat fee
Get a full, comprehensive edit of your picture book manuscript, including developmental editing, line editing, and proofreading, that is tailored to focus on whatever your story needs to make it sparkle.
