Copy Editing Service
Copy editing involves changes of a more substantial nature than proofreading. In addition to checking for errors in punctuation, spelling, grammar, verb tenses, etc, it addresses more complex grammatical errors, suggests words that may be more suitable, or perhaps even rewords phrases.
Copy editing is an individual process that looks to preserve the authors ‘voice’, whilst formatting the work to meet the needs and expectations of its intended audience. It is a more involved and complex process which may involve on-going communication with the author. ** This communication and any related review is included in the price for a 48 hour period, following the return of the work to the client **
