Hiring a professional to copy edit will ensure your text has no confusing inconsistencies: that side character’s eye color won’t switch in the middle of the story, or that weapon won’t randomly morph shapes on the next page. That’s not all, a professional copy editor can also help with anything from advising on comma placement, to helping smooth out awkward phrases. At Reedsy, we make it easier than ever before to connect with the freelancers in the industry.
