Line Editing

Feather pen and paperLine editing is the stage where you’ve smoothed out the prose as much as you can and you’re happy with your overall structure, but now you need a professional to help you tighten it up and pick up errors you’re too close to see.

Creative Manuscript Services can help you:

  • Spot consistency problems in story, tone and character
  • Turn passive voice into active voice
  • Reduce wordiness
  • Identify point of view issues
  • Correct word choice and spelling errors

A line edit will go over your story line by line and flag anything that needs attention. This services is available for full or partial manuscripts.

We’ll need to see a sample of your work to provide a quote, but generally charge between around two to five cents per word, depending on how ‘clean’ your manuscript is.
