Don’t jump ahead on copy editing! The painstaking ground level edit of your manuscript—while an essential step before seeking publication—can be effective only after the big picture developmental editing is complete.
Far more than mere proofreading, line editing is a thorough sentence-by-sentence edit of your manuscript.
You expect such an edit to slash and burn all inconsistencies, grammatical flubs, spelling or punctuation snafus—and you’ll receive just that! You’ll also banish awkward and ambiguous phrasing to ensure clarity and a smooth reading experience. Passive construction begone! Sentence variety engage! Should fact-checking seem necessary, you’ll also get these points flagged for support.
Spell check is a wonderful tool, but like all machine tools, it’s flawed. Grammar check likewise flags construction that’s perfectly correct in context yet misses true errors.
Don’t know the difference between pluperfect subjunctive and past perfect progressive tense? No idea why commas belong in certain sentences and have no place in others?
Struggle with knowing when Mother is capitalized or just a mother?
Consider yourself a grammar guru but want a second set of eyes?
You need a copy edit, stat!
