What does book editing cost?
More
edit, less fee! Other editors with comparable
experience may charge more, but that doesn't mean that their edits are
greater in scope. MORE
Why do I need a book editor?
You
have only one opportunity to make a first impression on a publisher; a
professional manuscript edit will maximize the impression you make.
MORE
What can I expect from a book edit?
My
book edit includes marking up your manuscript and providing a thorough
report that is rarely less than ten single-spaced pages in length.
MORE
What is the most important consideration
in selecting a book editor?
How
can someone who has never rejected manuscripts for a major publisher know
how to warn you about problems that could lead to manuscript rejection?

Honest,
Professional Results
YOUR
EDIT COULD START TODAY!
How long does book editing take?
Your
book edit could begin today, and turn-around time is rarely longer than
two weeks. MORE
Should a manuscript be given
a complete reading first before
the actual edit commences?
Since
your success with a publisher will ultimately depend upon the first impression
that you make on a publisher, your editor should approach your manuscript
based upon first impressions as well. MORE
Why
should I avoid sample edits?
Even
the weakest of manuscript editors can appear deceptively strong on the
basis of marks on a few pages of text. MORE
Why
is book manuscript format so important?
If
your book manuscript doesn't look the way publishers expect it to, they
are likely to reject it without reading a single word.

Where can I find out if a book editor I'm
considering has been involved in dishonest practices?
Verify
a prospective book editor's credentials and check Preditors
