Editorial Assistance

We can perform as your virtual editorial assistant and provide all-round support for your publishing project. This includes document preparation, manuscript typing/scanning, proofreading, project management (correspondence, invoicing, mail shots, etc.), research, picture sourcing, etc.

Proofreading

Checking for grammatical errors and spelling mistakes, as well as assessing overall sense and clarity, adherence to a specified style, and ensuring consistency of formatting. Please note that proofreading does not entail rewriting or subject matter verification.

Corrections can be made to a digital document with all the changes flagged for your approval before it is printed. We can also mark-up hardcopy using standard proofreading symbols

Copy-editing

Reviewing a manuscript for spelling, grammar, completeness, and consistency of style and format (in text, tables, bibliographies, footnotes, etc.). Includes verifying the accuracy of in-text cross references to illustrations, captions, chapters and notes, citations to the reference list, etc.

Assessing a manuscript's content. Highlighting obscure, incoherent, misleading or ambiguous sentences; non sequiturs in factual passages; unintentional mixed metaphors; contradiction and illogicality in the argument or plot; etc. Does not include extensive rewriting.
