Line edit
$0.035 - $0.055 / word
For a 60,000-word manuscript: $2100 - $3300
You have a great story. You want to make sure your prose is working for it.
This edit is about voice, wording, rhythm. It’s about finding the most efficient ways to convey meaning and emotion. I’ll be looking at your sentence structures and your use of language.
