Copyediting service
Copyediting happens before a proofread and is a line-by-line analysis of your writing to ensure your message is accurate, clear and that it connects with your reader. A copyedit will address:
-
Understanding: use of plain English to ensure a clear message with no ambiguity or repetition
-
Clarity: syntax, spelling, grammar, punctuation, appropriate word usage, vocabulary choice that avoids jargon and clichés
-
Queries: anything that seems to be an error, including misspelled names, misused words, numbers that don’t add up, contradictory statements, incomplete references, any obvious factual errors
-
Consistency of layout: treatment of headings, notes, illustrations and references, and ensuring captions fit the images
-
Sympathetic maintenance of author voice, whilst addressing the issues above
Prices start from £27 per hour.
A per word quote can be discussed if required.
