I have a completed adult-market fantasy manuscript that now needs a careful copyedit focused on flow and overall readability. The story, characters, and world-building are locked; what I’m looking for is a fresh set of eyes to smooth sentence rhythm, tighten paragraphs, and flag any wording that might trip up a reader. You’ll receive the full manuscript in Word and I’d like the edit returned with Track Changes enabled so I can review every adjustment. A brief style sheet noting recurring choices or suggestions for stronger consistency would also be appreciated. If you spot glaring grammar or punctuation issues along the way, feel free to fix them, but the primary goal is a seamless reading experience that will keep adult fantasy fans fully immersed. When we’re done, I expect: • The marked-up Word file with all changes visible • A clean, final version ready for formatting • A concise style sheet (optional but welcome) I’m ready to start as soon as we agree on timing and can share a short sample chapter for you to evaluate before committing to the full edit.

Your goal here — readability, not a rewrite — is exactly how I'd run this. Pass one works at the sentence and paragraph level: sentence rhythm, echo words, dialogue beats, scene and POV transitions. Pass two is a close grammar and punctuation sweep. Pass three checks recurring choices against a short style sheet, which I'll send along with the edit. Delivery is a Word file with Track Changes on, plus a clean final copy. Anything that's an authorial call rather than an error I'll flag in a comment instead of silently rewriting your voice. I'd like to start with the sample chapter you offered, so you can judge my line-level work before committing to the whole manuscript. I've capped the weekly limit at 10 hours so turnaround stays predictable, and I'm happy to sign an NDA.

In fantasy, readability usually breaks in two places: sentences that stack three invented names before the verb, and paragraphs where action and world-building compete for the same breath. Readers don't stop because of a typo; they stop because they had to reread a line. How I'd copyedit your manuscript: - Sentence rhythm: vary length, untangle stacked clauses, cut filler ("began to", "seemed to", "suddenly") without changing your voice - Paragraph tightening: one beat per paragraph in action scenes, smoother transitions between scene and exposition - Flag, not rewrite: anything that might trip a reader gets a margin comment with a suggested fix, so the choice stays yours - Grammar and punctuation fixed along the way - A style sheet: names, places, invented terms, capitalisation, hyphenation and spelling choices, kept consistent across the whole book Everything in Word with Track Changes, plus a clean copy and the style sheet. I'm keeping my rate low because I'm building reviews on this platform; the manuscript gets full care. What's the word count, and is it US or UK English? Send me the first chapter and I'll edit 2 pages so you can judge my touch before hiring.

I have a passion for helping other people tell their stories. I have experience as a book editor. I have done copy and developmental editing on four science fiction books, and it's literally one of my favorite things to do as an editor. I track changes. I check spelling, syntax, grammar, and flow in the work. I will brainstorm with you on how to improve the narrative. I can even make a rubric so you can see where to improve and what I liked about your work. I am excited to get to work and I hope we get to work together!
