CORE COMPETENCY
All customers receive the benefit of core competencies. All editing will check the following elements which constitute the foundation or framework for exceptional writing: credibility, word flow or fluency, syntax, grammar, spelling, wordiness, verb tense consistency, proper use of conjunctions, avoidance of ending a sentence with a preposition, avoidance of “communication weeds”, tone, excessive use of passive voice, excessive repetition of a name balanced with the right amount of pronouns to prevent reader “numbness”, logical sequence of events, ability to hold interest, content, correctness, etc.
Why SYNTAX?
Syntax is the arrangement of words and phrases to create well-formed sentences.
Types of EDITING Offered
Structural Editing, Developmental Editing, Copy Editing, Proofreading and Style Editing to adapt to a particular writing style or Custom Editing is available.
I have the ability to adapt to multiple writing styles along with possessing a two way mirror technique from the writer to the reader.
Why DEVELOPMENTAL Editing?
A Developmental Editor is your friend. A Developmental Editor is a Constructive Collaborator.
Developmental editors offer specific suggestions about the core intentions and goals of the book, the underlying premise, the plot for a series, the story, character development, use of dialogue and sensory description, the polish, narrative voice, pacing, style, language – the craft and literary art of the book.
Many writers have learned the hard way that agents and acquisition editors at commercial houses don’t want a manuscript that’s not ready for prime time.
Self-publishing authors – whether they intend to stay independent or try to convert their book to a commercial house — can also benefit from professional feedback to compete with the 12,000 new titles every year vying for a reader’s attention.
