"Thank you for the excellent job you did on editing my novel. Thanks to your eye for detail, the format is looking much better. But best of all, my characters are really coming to life.

WHAT KIND OF EDIT DO YOU NEED?

How much does hiring an editor cost?
Our prices are consistent, whether you need a developmental edit, line edit, or copy edit. We charge $0.006/per word (multiply the number of words in your manuscript by $0.006). You'll be invoiced upon the completion of the edit, unless the manuscript is over 75K words; if your manuscript is longer than 75K, we'll invoice for half once we reach the midway point.
Do we provide a sample edit?
Yes! We want to make sure that our services meet your expectations. We offer a free sample edit for the first 1500 words. Don't hesitate to contact us, even if you're unsure about what type of edit you need.
Dawn offers a free sample edit for the first 1500 words.
Why work with us?
"Dawn provided invaluable feedback on my thriller manuscript. She gave suggestions to make all aspects of the novel better and included explanations for each comment and edit. Having her edit was not only helpful for the single manuscript, but her insight could easily be applied to future projects as well. I would highly recommend Dawn's services to any writer looking for a professional, comprehensive, and thoughtful developmental edit. I can't wait for her to edit my next book!" --H.K. Christie, author of Where I'm Supposed to Be and We Can't Be Broken
