A professional book editor can provide a fresh perspective on your manuscript and offer valuable feedback to enhance the overall structure, plot, character development, and language use. Each editor tends to specialize in a fiction or non-fiction subgenre, such as romance, mystery, or science fiction, so they can better cater to your specific needs as an author, and help situate your work in its appropriate context of market competitors.
Hiring a book editor isn’t just for self-publishing authors — collaborating with a pro can significantly increase your chances of getting your work accepted by traditional publishing houses or literary agents. Our book editors in New Zealand and beyond can meet you where you are: whether you need developmental editing (big-picture feedback), line editing (sentence-level improvements), or proofreading (correcting typographical or formatting errors).
