Manatee Editing

Website is under construction! Thanks for your patience.

Amanda was very friendly and knowledgeable. She communicated her feedback clearly and efficiently. She only made changes that were necessary for clarity without affecting my voice. I would recommend her services to anyone needing professional edits.

Proofreading

The final step in polishing your text. Proofreading focuses on catching errors that can distract readers or undermine professionalism. It includes:


  • Correcting spelling, punctuation, and grammar
  • Fixing typos and formatting inconsistencies
  • Ensuring consistency in capitalization, hyphenation, and numbering
  • Reviewing minor style and usage issues
  • Checking references, headers, and page numbers (if applicable)


Proofreading does not change the content or structure of your writing—it ensures your text is clean, polished, and ready for publication.

Copy Editing

Copy editing improves clarity, readability, and overall presentation. It includes:


  • Correcting grammar, spelling, punctuation, and syntax
  • Ensuring consistent style and formatting
  • Improving sentence flow and word choice
  • Clarifying meaning without changing your voice or content


Copy editing helps your writing read smoothly and professionally while staying true to your style.
