Editing Services
We offer types of edits to take your "B" work to "A" work. Pages & Pie Publishing will do one, two, or three thorough edits, which will be determined based on the amount of editing the book needs.
Developmental: This is the story edit. We look for a strong, attention-grabbing beginning. We assess the consistency of voice and tone, sentence phrases, and general writing structure. We check your plot strength, characterization, theme, and pacing. Then there’s the “big bang.” How strong is your ending?
Copyediting: This edit is all about sentence mechanics. We will look at your manuscript line by line for grammar mistakes, misspelled words, typos, punctuation problems, or misuse of parts of speech. We will point out inconsistent details that take us out of the moment.
Proofreading: This is the last stop to perfection. This is when one last set of eyes looks over everything covered in the developmental and copyediting stages. This is the final check. One last chance for your manuscript to reveal copy errors hiding in the text before this book is published.
