Copyediting that
protects your voice.

Copyediting is the consistency pass. We fix language errors, settle style choices, catch continuity slips, and build a style sheet so names, numbers, and mechanics hold from chapter one to the end.

  • Mechanics Grammar, spelling, punctuation
  • Continuity Names, timelines, facts
  • Style sheet Rules that keep the book consistent
  • Clarity fixes Ambiguous lines cleaned with care
