My authors appreciate my gentle approach to editing and trust my judgment when they veer out of the lane of standard English grammar. Sometimes I guide them back into the lane; sometimes I allow them to wander into other lanes to find their voice and rhythm.
In addition to line and copyediting and proofreading, Pamela offers:
- manuscript reviews
- fact-checking services
- editing source materials and bibliographies.
Pamela provides a free sample edit (up to 1,500 words ) to assess the level of editing your manuscript would most benefit from.
