Nonfiction Developmental Editing Services

The expedited formatting of my manuscript.

The professionalism, the timely follow-ups, status updates, courtesy. A good group to work with, especially on something so dear to my heart. The recommendations were great, and the editing was exemplary. The recommendation of using scene breaks really made my book easier to read. I am still finding more of the great edits every time I reread!

Professionalism, quality, engaging in personal communication. The editor clearly did some deep reading for content editing and gave me very helpful feedback on the storyline etc., much beyond copyediting.

Dr Michael did an incredible job correcting grammatical errors in my book and restructured my manuscript to make it even more appealing to my audience.

Joanne was wonderful to work with! She provided valuable insight that truly helped me grow as an author and elevate my manuscript. Her feedback was both thoughtful and constructive, offering fresh perspectives while always respecting my voice as a writer. Joanne's keen attention to detail, whether in grammar, style, or story structure-improved my work in ways I hadn't anticipated. Her passion for storytelling and dedication to excellence were evident in every suggestion, making the editing process both productive and enjoyable. I highly recommend Joanne to any writer looking to take their work to the next level.

I appreciate the editing which caught several questions of why or made me support my research. It was a very helpful and professional editorial review.

The coaching of my editor Joanne and her direct observations. I have learned a lot regarding American English grammar, spelling, and especially content rewriting.

I appreciated sending in a sample and finding out what type of editing I needed. I learned a lot from the editor that I can use in the future. The personal communication was also encouraging.

The customer support was excellent and the turnaround time was fast. Dr. Vonda completed the editing to my satisfaction. Cost was reasonable compared to other editing services. Dr. Vonda provided many consoling comments.

For any author trying to launch a book, controlling cost is high in the ranking of importance.

I enjoy their prompt attention to my work and will use them again in the future.They correct my silly mistakes. no matter how many times I review my work, there are dozens of errors that they fix!
