Editing Services:
Do you need someone to take a look at your book or article? Looking for a quick turnaround? Sisters Ink Publishing can give you the confidence you need for submission to a publisher or agent or independent publishing. Choose from basic proofreading or standard content editing.
Please note that we do not accept anything that would be considered "R" rated or higher, including horror, occult, and erotica. We reserve the right to turn down any job for any reason including time, length, or otherwise.
Fees are based upon the amount of work needed on your specific project. Please email ten pages representative of the full-length manuscript to sistersinkpublishing(at)gmail(dot)com for a free, no-obligation evaluation. This ensures a good fit for both editor and author, and provides an opportunity to discuss final price and working time frame. Further questions? Fill out the contact form below and I'll answer any questions you may have.
Half of the agreed upon fee must be paid via PayPal or personal check before commencement of editing services.

Services
Content Editing
Content editing is the most comprehensive and perfect for a first-time writer. The editor will asses structure and substance, reader reaction, plot, characterization, pacing, and organization--as well as all of the services included in the copy editing below. Suggestions and comments will be made in the margins of the document, and a full write-up will accompany the return of the manuscript.
Proofreading, Copy/Line Editing
Copy editing is just right if the manuscript is almost ready for submission or publication. Editorial emphasis will be placed on repetitive words, grammar, punctuation, capitalization, word choice and connotation, syntax, clarity, consistency, and proofreading.
