Copy Editing

I will check your manuscript for spelling, grammar and punctuation.

This is the minimum check you should undertake before moving on to formatting your manuscript.  Also, an independent editor is far more likely to spot and correct any errors.

Enhanced Editing

In addition to standard copy editing, I will take your manuscript through a comprehensive check for structure, logical ordering of chapters/sub-sections, style, length, consistency and readability.

Once your manuscript is ready, I will prepare it for publication, creating a print-ready digital file that an be sent to any printer or uploaded to Amazon’s print-on-demand platform.

I will encode your completed m,anuscript so that it can be uploaded directly to Amazon’s Kindle Store.

I Can also create a cover for your e-book adapted from your paperback book cover.

I can create books with partial or full-colour interiors.  However, due to the very high cost of colour printing, you will have to set a high price for your book even to earn relatively small royalties.

You can include colour images in Kindle books but these may not appear when displayed on most Kindle readers.

If I helped you publish your first edition, I can amend/update the Kindle version of your book at any time.  But you will only be able to make changes to your paperback if you republish it as a second edition.  For this reason, I strongly suggest waiting until you wish to make substantive changes such as adding or rewriting chapters.

Kindle versions can be changed at any time without having to be republished as new editions.
