Edit Your Essay Or Personal Statement

Developmental editing is often referred to as ‘big picture editing’. This is usually the first type of editing a manuscript undergoes – it is where the editor looks at the plot, characters, theme, perspective/POV, author voice, and worldbuilding. It is not a proofread or a copy-edit. A developmental edit will include in-line comments throughout the document with suggestions, thoughts, and ideas. These comments will then be actioned by the author, not the editor. If you have any questions about your project, or whether developmental editing is right for you, please reach out and we can discuss it further.
