Writers of any skill level need a good editor to serve as a second pair of eyes, to catch errors (trust me: there are always errors), to suggest improvements in content and organization, and to ensure consistency and conformity to a publisher’s style guide.
Authors and publishers may request a project estimate below. Students may check out our student editing services.
