SYNTAX & SUBTEXT SERVICES

We have a passion for helping writers and aspiring authors strengthen their work to prepare for whatever their next step is - whether it's querying agents or self-publishing. We understand that no two writing projects are the same, and that you can't take a 'one-size-fits-all' approach when sitting down to edit a new project. To meet your goal, we offer a variety of services! 

If you have any questions about our services or if you would like a quote for your project, contact us!

Sensitivity and Authenticity Review

A review that focuses on flagging material that may be inappropriate or harmful to underrepresented groups. ($0.01-0.028/word)

Developmental Editing

Developmental editing focuses on the “big picture” of your manuscript. Your editor will focus on plot development, character development, and overall structure. It does not focus on the work at a sentence or word level. ($0.035-0.04/word)

Line Editing

Line editing focuses on word choice, phrasing, and other elements of writing at a sentence level. ($0.025-0.03/word)

Copy Editing

Consists of mechanical and substantive editing. Mechanical editing involves the consistent application of a particular style to a written work. Substantive editing deals with the organization and presentation of existing content. Every word and punctuation mark gets attention in the manuscript. This step prepares an otherwise final manuscript for publication. ($0.03-0.05/word)

Proofreading

A final review of a work for any remaining errors after the manuscript has been prepared for publication. ($0.015/word)

Interior Design Layout

We will work with you one-on-one to reach your desired interior layout. Once a design is approved by you, you will be provided a ZIP file containing the generated files for both e-book and print editions of your work. ($4/page)
