Overview
Congratulations on finishing your book manuscript! I would be delighted to help you with your next stage.
My 30+ years of experience lie primarily in copyediting trade nonfiction (any discipline/topic) as well as scholarly history, art history, and history of religions for a top-tier university press. Some of my favorite projects appear in my portfolio, below.
My services are limited to copyediting nonfiction final drafts. See Reedsy's definitions of editing levels here: https://reedsy.com/faq/common-questions/services/editing. TIP: Contract copyediting and proofreading separately, with different editors, for best results.
I edit according to The Chicago Manual of Style (CMOS) exclusively, as I am involved in its publication and therefore cannot risk holding other styles (e.g., APA, MLA) in my editorial brain. Nearly all publishers will accept this style. Dissertation requirements are often more strict. In any case, please confirm that CMOS is an acceptable style for your project before requesting a bid.
