Developmental EditingThis is big-picture work. You'll send me your draft, and I'll send it back with comments and a letter summarizing what's working well and where you might focus your revision energy. Argument, evidence, and structure are the primary concerns here.
|
Line EditingThis is more granular work and should happen once the big-picture stuff is mostly settled. You'll send me your draft, and I'll send it back to you with comments and suggestions for wording. This isn't copy-editing; rather, the focus here is on dynamic, engaging writing that pulls readers in and brings your argument to life.

Book ProposalA book proposal is its own thing. Here, I can do a combination of developmental and line editing to help you build and refine your prospectus, table of contents, and writing samples. I'll also read and comment on your response to peer reviewers once your acquisitions editor sends those to you.

A NOTE ON PRICING
Are you an early career scholar or writer who doesn't have institutional funding? Or are you a writer who is working on prison abolition? If so, please contact me to discuss prices. I am able to donate a portion of my time to working on projects in these scenarios at reduced rates (and pro bono for abolitionists).
DON'T SEE WHAT YOU'RE LOOKING FOR?
I can help on other projects and in other ways, too, so if you could use some developmental editing help but don't see exactly what you need listed here, please contact me to discuss your project so that we can settle on a set of services that works best for you. This can include thesis/dissertation work, parsing peer reviews for a Revise & Resubmit, or brainstorming in the early stages of a project before you're ready to write.
In all cases, word count is approximate, and turnaround is 2 weeks. Larger projects and faster turnarounds carry an extra fee.
