Greenleaf Literary Services

Sometimes all a manuscript needs is a final edit to bring it up to publication standards.

Today’s busy literary agent or publisher won’t read past the first page of your manuscript if it’s littered with typos, punctuation errors, misspellings, or poor sentence structure. Instead, the agent or publisher will heave a sigh, toss your manuscript into the “Reject” box, and reach for the next one from the stack on his or her desk.

You don’t want your hard work dismissed so casually, do you?

I’ll fix the errors, polish the prose, and create a new manuscript in electronic form. You’ll have a manuscript you can be proud of, and the literary agent or publisher will be impressed.

My fee for book editing ranges from $35 to $45 per thousand words, depending on how much work is needed. Turnaround time is usually eight to ten weeks.
