Editing Services
Tired of second-guessing your manuscript? Our editing approach is designed to help writers stay true to their creative voices while producing polished and engaging writing. Before you hit publish on your next book or submit your story to a publisher, contact us for an in-depth consultation.
Includes:
Developmental Editing - This type of editing looks at the “big picture” of your work with special attention to plot development, character development, and structure.
Copy Editing & Proofreading - Copy editing involves a detailed evaluation of work for grammar, syntax, sentence structure, word choice, and proofreading for errors.
Formatting - Using the Chicago Style Manual, we will ensure that the piece meets industry standards for professional formatting. We help authors format their books for print and e-books. We also format manuscripts for Amazon KDP and other formats upon request.
No AI Policy - Spoken Black Girl does not accept projects generated by AI.
