What Is Line Editing?
This is an intense edit, where we focus on getting your prose flowing smoothly, your dialogue feeling natural, and your voice shining through consistently. I'll be going through each sentence of your novel to make sure every word is pulling its weight.
This is often the most daunting stage of the editorial process, but results are more than worth it. This is where a novel starts to read like a finished book!
What you get:
- Tracked changes throughout your Word document, with comments giving detailed explanations and suggestions for any of the more involved edits.
- A brief editorial letter summarising any recurring issues and explaining my reasoning for editorial decisions, along with my overall thoughts on your story, highlighting its strengths and suggesting improvements where appropriate.
- An optional follow up meeting, and ongoing email support.
