AT A GLANCE

What is the difference between editing and proofreading?

Editing improves the substance and style of your manuscript — structure, flow, clarity, and consistency — while proofreading is the final check for spelling, grammar, punctuation, and typos. Nova Publisher offers developmental, line, and copy editing as well as proofreading, and editing and proofreading are included in our $199 Author Publishing Package.

SERVICE DETAILS

The Right Level of Editing for Your Manuscript

Every manuscript needs something different. We'll recommend the level of editing that fits your book so you don't pay for work you don't need.

Developmental editing

Big-picture feedback on structure, pacing, plot, characters, and argument — ideal for early drafts.

Line and copy editing

Sentence-level work that improves clarity, rhythm, word choice, consistency, and grammar while keeping your voice.

Proofreading

A final, careful pass to catch typos, punctuation errors, and formatting slips before your book goes to print or eBook.

What our editors look for

  • Structure, pacing, and flow
  • Clarity and readability
  • Consistency in names, facts, and style
  • Grammar, spelling, and punctuation
  • Typos and formatting slips
