Copy-Editing Services
Welcome!
Thank you for your interest in my copy-editing service.
As a published author, I have always edited my own books. After receiving a compliment from my publisher about my editing skills, I decided to provide copy editing services for other authors.
What is a copy editor?
A copy editor looks for and corrects errors in punctuation, grammar, and spelling. We also check for story flow. I take my copy-editing services one step further and check for consistencies in all of these areas.
What do you mean you check for consistencies?
Let me give you an example to clarify. Let's say you use the word Sherriff in your story and you use it often. Now, let's say that the first three times you use the word, you use it with a capital S and then you change it and you start using a lower case s. I would pick up on this and change them all to use a capital S.
