Editing

Proofreading

This is the final pass of a piece before publication, after copy editing and content editing. The Proofreading pass is designed to catch spelling errors, broken reference links, and obvious grammatical errors. If necessary, it may include some suggestions to break up long blocks of text. Prices include one round of editing and one round of recheck for short pieces.

Copy Editing

This secondary editing pass comes before Proofreading but after Content Editing. An item that is in copy edit is checked for idea and content flow, clarity, and readabilty. If more than one article or chapter will be edited, the pieces are considered together for overall themes and smooth expression of ideas. Grammar is checked, and specific suggestions will be offered to break up long blocks of text and reflow ideas if needed. Prices include one round of editing and one round of recheck for short pieces.

Content Editing

Also known as line editing or developmental editing. This primary pass comes before Proofreading. Content Editing usually includes copy editing, with addition of specific blocks of text or research to round out or complete a piece or series of pieces. A final round of proofreading is done after one content edit pass. Prices include an appropriate response time for editing finalization.
