Project details
You will get a well-edited document or manuscript with no grammar, tone, style, or flow errors. I will thoroughly edit your document and scout for structural issues, overuse of active sentences, poor diction, punctuation errors, and ungrammatical sentences. I will also write a review and provide editorial feedback, which will come in the form of commentary that I give while performing line editing on your document. As an editor for eight years and a published author, you can trust my candid opinion and editing on your document to make it an award-winning piece that beats the readers' imaginations. At the same time, I will tell you the strengths and weaknesses of your document and help you improve your writing and close the loopholes. You can always count on me as your second set of eyes to go over your manuscript to make it the best it can be to achieve publication.
