Book Editing & Proofreading
-
Manuscript Evaluation
I will read your manuscript cover to cover and identify its strengths and weaknesses so you can make an informed decision about what to change, improve, or leave as it is. The result of this evaluation is an editorial letter, where I discuss the storyline, writing style, plot, pacing, setting, character arcs, reading flow, and more.
-
Line Editing
This type of editing focuses on writing style and voice. I will comb the manuscript line by line, sentence by sentence, looking for ways to improve your writing, pointing out awkward phrasing, unnecessary repetition, telling vs. showing, passive voice, and dialogue, and flagging any inconsistencies.
-
Copy Editing
During this phase, I will make sure your writing is clear, concise, and free of grammatical, spelling, and punctuation errors. I will address commonly confused words and ensure consistency with capitalization, hyphenation, and numerals. This provides a professional polish to your book.
-
Proofreading
This is the last step of final polishing and fine touches of the manuscript after line and copy editing. I will make sure that no typos, misspellings, punctuation, or formatting errors will spoil the experience of your readers.
-
Manuscript Critique
In addition to the chosen editing service, I will provide light manuscript critique, free of charge. This includes comments on plot, setting, character arc, pacing, dialogue and more.

"As an aspiring author working on my first novel manuscript, I was very nervous about having five years of hard work picked through. Fortunately I discovered Nevvie to not only be professional in her services, but also supportive and informative. She not only provided a thorough review of the novel and helpful tips for grammar, but also very insightful comments on development. She offered encouragement and went above and beyond the 'bare minimum' to make sure I had all the information I needed to refine my creative work.
Because of her professionalism, insight, and compassion with a very friendly personality, I plan on returning to Nevvie for my future editing projects."
