Editorial Packages

Is your book ready for the full publishing prep treatment? Booking a package rather than an individual service gets you solid accountability for pushing through to accomplish your writing goals and more opportunities to learn the technical details that will help you along your publication path. If you’re ready to go, reach out to get a quote and book your package!

Self-Publishing

If you’re prepping to self-publish your book and plan to hire or handle cover design yourself, I would be honored to offer these services as part of your publishing team:

What You Get:

Copy Edit

Book Layout
Proofread
Book Description Writing or Editing

Payment Plans: Pay up front to save time and energy or pay by the service.

Average Turnaround Time: typically six to twelve weeks (not including author review periods*)

*An author review period of one to six weeks will follow each service. During this time, you can review and ask questions or confer with the other professionals on your publication team. If you choose my book layout and proofreading services together, I will handle the book layout, and another editor will complete the proofread.

Traditional Publishing

If you intend to query agents and publishers, this package service is for you. Before your manuscript is ready for these services, it should have already been reviewed by your critique group, beta readers, and (if needed) a developmental editor. Consider this package a final editorial pass before you enter the query trenches.

What You Get:

Line Edit (or Copy Edit)
Query and Synopsis Review

Payment Plans: Pay up front to save time and energy or pay by the service.

Average Turnaround Time: typically six to twelve weeks (not including author review periods*)

*An author review period of one to six weeks will follow each service. During this time, you can review, revise (if after a line edit), and ask questions (if after a copy edit or query review).
