One of the hardest jobs an author faces is proofreading. In many cases the writer has reviewed their manuscript so many times that errors are virtually invisible.

Our editors will read your article, story or book for errors in spelling, grammar, sentence mechanics, continuity of time and plot, logic breaks, and consistency of character names and places. Editing services include a review for the following errors in:

-- Capitalization
-- Grammar
-- Punctuation
-- Spelling
-- Word Usage
-- Continuity of time and plot points
-- Pagination
-- Continuity of characters' names and places

Our editors work on a variety of documents including:

-- Nonfiction articles
-- Short stories (essays and fiction)
-- Novels
-- Screenplays
-- Poems

All estimates are based on the document's word count plus a reading fee. Documents are returned so that authors may view tracked changes and accept or reject the suggested changes. Commenting is included that explains the editorial suggestions.

XpressEDIT can also polish your query letter and pitch to agents.

Additional services for authors include:

-- query letters to agents
-- revise your query letter
-- marketing and collateral material
-- press releases
-- book summaries
-- blog posts
-- author bios

Alternatively, please email your document with an explanation of your needs to editorial(AT)xpressedit.com and one of our editors will reply with an estimate and approximate turnaround time.

Call or email your document to our editorial department (editorial@xpressedit.com). Please include the following: A line with the document's estimated word count, deadline for assignment to be completed, the name of the billing party, plus an address and a telephone number where an editor may reach the person ordering our service.

All copyediting assignments must be pre-paid. An editor will review the document and confirm the charge based on the supplied word count and/or alert the party placing the order if -- in his or her opinion -- the document needs extensive revisions beyond the scope of copyediting. An invoice will be sent via email and payment is due in advance of beginning the assignment. Turnaround is based on a first come, first served basis.

Major credit cards are accepted or payment may be made by check in advance of starting the assignment.
