We Provide Two Read-Throughs With Our Heavy Line Editing Service
Editmojo’s Signature Heavy Line Edit is like giving your manuscript a double dose of TLC.
Here’s the deal: We don’t just skim through your work once. We go through it twice, which is a real game-changer for those intricate stories needing extra love.
Round One – The Deep Dive: First up, we dive headfirst into your manuscript, paying attention to every little detail. Our goal? To make everything read smoothly while keeping your unique style alive. We’re talking grammar, consistency, style – the works. It’s all about laying a solid foundation for an even more thorough check.
Round Two – The Fine-Tuning: The second round is where we get nitpicky, in a good way. With the basics nailed down, we shift our focus to polishing the language, tightening up the story, and nailing the tone.
What You Get: Imagine your manuscript getting pampered not once, but twice. The result is a piece that’s not just free from errors, but also sparkles with great storytelling and expression. It’s a perfect fit for those complex pieces that need an extra sprinkle of detail-oriented care.

What Does An Editor Do?
A book editor plays a vital role in transforming a manuscript into a polished and publishable work. Their job begins with a thorough evaluation of the manuscript, assessing its structure, style, and alignment with the intended genre and audience. They then engage in line editing, where they meticulously refine each sentence for clarity, readability, and consistency in tone.
This is followed by copyediting, which focuses on correcting grammar, punctuation, spelling, and syntax errors, ensuring the manuscript is free from any linguistic inconsistencies. In the final stages, the editor proofreads the text, catching any minor oversights and ensuring the manuscript is impeccably polished. Beyond these technical aspects, book editors provide valuable feedback and guidance, helping authors enhance their work while maintaining their unique voice.
They also prepare the manuscript for publication, which may involve formatting and coordinating with design teams for the book’s overall presentation. Through this collaborative and detailed process, book editors are instrumental in bringing a manuscript to its full potential, ready to captivate its intended audience.
Hiring a Professional Book Editor
Where Do You Find An Editor?
Finding an editor can seem impossible if you search through the multitudes of results on Google. Editmojo is one of the best book editing companies around.
You can spend hours searching freelance sites for an editor, but it’s best to keep your search narrow.
Ask for recommendations from other writers, especially if they write in the same genre as you. We are obviously a little biased, but we recommend comparing our sample edit with other editors. You’ll want to contact multiple editors to find the best person possible to work with you and your book.
Hone Your Craft
The most important lesson a writer can take to heart is that you can always improve your craft.
One of the best ways to do this is to work with an editor who will advise you on structure, pacing, and word choices to improve your communication skills.
By viewing their advice as an opportunity to learn rather than harsh criticism, you can address the areas that need improvement and use that knowledge to your advantage.
Book Editing and Formatting
Authors can spend days, weeks, or even months trying to edit their work. A common pitfall for writers entering the revision process is getting caught up in research, themes, or structural dilemmas.
You can avoid this lost time and mounting frustration by working with an editor. It may take them a few weeks to work their way through your manuscript, which gives you time to begin working on your next project.
Therefore, a certain amount of book editing needs to be done by you before hiring a professional, which we discussed earlier, but don’t get weighed down by all the little details. Going over your work in-depth is your editor’s job.
