Editing Sevices
-
Copyediting
Editing for spelling, grammar, common usage, confusing language, and flow. This goes beyond what a spellchecker app does - it’s making sure your language reads naturally and won’t trip up any readers.
-
Full Edit
This includes copyediting, but goes beyond to include issues of plot, character, argument, and logic (as relevant to fiction or nonfiction, depending on your project). It’s a full writer’s workshop for your piece, customized to your goals for your own writing.
-
Sensitivity Reading
I’m able to provide sensitivity reading for depictions of transgender people, queer people, and people with depression.
-
Custom Edit
Looking for something else? Just let me know! I can customize editing services for your project, whether you just need to cut down some words, or need a full-scale revamp of the project.
-
Credentials
I have a Master’s degree in English, and am currently dissertating for my PhD. I teach writing at the university level, and also work in publishing at a university press. I have provided editing services to novelists, academic authors, game designers, and more.

Pricing
My default price for copyediting is 50 cents a page, and full edits are a dollar a page (a page is 12 pt font, one inch margins, single or 1.5 spaced). Sensitivity reading pricing depends on the project. My prices in general are flexible - if your budget doesn’t quite meet these prices, feel free to reach out and I’ll let you know what I can do within your budget.
