Editing

Tara's truest passion lies in helping others be successful at what they do, and providing editing services to authors is one of her favorite ways to do it. Let's talk about your work and how to get you from where it's at to where you want it to be!

Even the best writers can be made better with a great editor who knows the industry, has a solid grasp on grammar, but also understands the reader experience trumps all. 

Tara provides all levels of editing, including:

• Editorial Assessment- An overview of strengths and weaknesses of your work, suggestions for improvement and marketing, and next step recommendations.
• Developmental Editing- A thorough and detailed look at your work with recommendations based on industry standards and target audience. In most cases, you will need to spend a lot of time reworking your manuscript. 
• Copy editing/Line editing- A technical look at your work, focusing on grammar, structure, consistency, etc. (Note: If your larger work has not had a developmental edit by a professional, it is probably not ready for a copy edit.)
• Proofreading- The final stage before publication, a proofread gets the errors that were missed (or made) in rewrites. (Note: If your work has not gone through copy editing, it may not be ready for proofreading.)

Pricing varies depending on the type of work. If you're not sure what help you need or to what extent, let's get on a call. S​end me a message with the basics of your project and a best time to meet.
