Editing

I take a thorough, caring, and accessible approach to all the work I do. I offer a variety of professional editing services, described below (definitions adapted mostly from Editors Canada). You may be seeking some combination of these services. If you aren’t sure exactly which kind of editing you need, ask! We can tailor my services to your requirements.

Substantive Editing
Clarifying and/or reorganizing a manuscript for content and structure.

Stylistic Editing
Clarifying meaning, eliminating jargon, smoothing language, and other line-by-line interventions.

Copyediting
Correcting and making suggestions regarding grammar, spelling, punctuation, and other mechanics of style; checking for internal mechanical and factual consistency. May also include providing or changing system of citations.

Proofreading
Recommending editorial and design changes to copy-edited and type-set documents, including checking the proof against the edited manuscript, verifying design specifications, and improving visual readability of the formatted text.

We really want to keep gay book lovers satisfied.
