Proofreading
Whether fiction or nonfiction, every piece of writing requires careful proofreading. This covers spelling, grammar, and punctuation, as well as typographical consistency.
Proofreading is usually one of the last steps in the editorial process, once the argument or narrative, voice, and body of the essay or story have been polished.
Copy Editing
& Line Editing
Copy editing focuses on the technical aspects of the body of your text, including spelling, grammar, and punctuation, but includes making or checking a style sheet to ensure consistency in terminology, fact-checking as needed, and going over references or inconsistencies in a manuscript.
In line editing, the editor reviews the overall style of your work, focusing on voice, communication, and clarity.
Developmental Editing
Developmental editing is a true collaboration between the author and the editor to formulate your project and discover your authorial voice.
Whether you need help piecing together an argument for a research paper or assistance resolving plot holes in your historical fiction story, AE Freelance Editing can help bring your vision to life and give your writing clarity and consistency.
