Line Editing
How It Works
Line editing is for when your book needs an extra boost in style, grammar, structure, etc.
Let's get started.
Send me your draft, and I will go through a deep round of line edits where I fix grammar, sentence structure, and word choice. This will take me 1-2 weeks, depending on the length of your manuscript.
​
I will then send the draft back to you with tracked changes. From there, it's up to you whether you'd like to accept or deny any changes I made.
Pricing
Pricing starts at a flat rate of $250 for up to 50,000 words. For books longer than 50,000 words, please add $25 for each additional tier of up to 10,000 words.
​
Exact pricing will be discussed per project and provided with your contract, but see below for a general breakdown.
For books longer than 80,000 words, pricing will continue in the same pattern.
I require 1,000-word editing samples for all prospective clients to best determine if we are a good fit to work together. Sample edits are FREE and turnaround time is 2-4 days.
FAQ
How long does it take?
​
This is determined by the length of your novel, but generally I will have your project back to you within 14 days of our start date. If you need it faster, I will charge a rush fee (which will vary based on project length, time, and is up to my discretion).
What genres do you accept?
​
I'm most comfortable with editing books in the following genres:
Paranormal/Fantasy Romance (all spice levels)
Paranormal/Fantasy (no romance)
Contemporary Romance (all spice levels)
​
Don't write in those genres? Don't worry! I'm more than happy to take a look at your novel no matter what the genre is, though I will ask that you disclose any potentially disturbing or triggering content that may be in your book. I reserve the right to decline the project if I feel it isn't right for me.
​
What if I don't like an edit you made?
That's okay too! All my edits will be made via tracked changes, so you can accept or deny them based on your preference.
Can I book in advance?
​
I accept bookings in advance depending on availability. However, since I charge by word count, it is best that you book with me when your book is very close to done.
