Book Editing

Flexible and Professional Book Editing

We offer a range of services. Allograph offers professional assistance in preparing a manuscript for publication, with flexible options according to the budget. We can take your project through the whole process, or provide only what you need. Whether you intend to sell the manuscript or to self-publish, we can help at each stage of book editing.

Our Specialized Services

Tell us what you want. Specify what needs editing. Ask for a specialized quote for the services that you require. You’ll see exactly what we do and how much we charge. You can ask for a Quick Manuscript Opinion – useful if you haven’t finished writing – or choose our more comprehensive editing service.

Structural Editing

A solid foundation for your manuscript is essential, and this is how we establish it. We analyse your writing for both content and organization, and advise you of recommended changes. You can implement them yourself or, after discussion, we can re-organize your manuscript into the new structure. We return it to you for review. You may want to write more.

Copy Editing

Also called line editing, this process improves the readability your manuscript in many ways. We suggest what needs attention, and can then carry out the improvements that you want.

The simplest kind of copy editing corrects grammar and spelling. It can include the style of headings, logic, and legal issues. Our copy editors can also develop your notes into coherent, full sentences. We customize this service to your needs.

Proof reading

This is the last chance to catch embarrassing mistakes before your book is published. Allograph’s associate proofreaders also catch mistakes in formatting that may have crept in during the design of the book.
