Copyediting
One of the last steps in the process, the copy edit digs into the minutiae. Syntax, repetition, clarity, continuity, redundancy, diction all the way down to punctuation and spelling. Compelling, not just correct, execution is a necessary component of a story that captures its audience. You want your writing to feel intuitive, your vision to feel comprehensive, as if the page is a door that the reader can merely step through. Tailored to your needs and the needs of your manuscript, an excellent copyedit will get you to the finish line in top form.

Proofreading
The last gasp of spelling errors, typos, extra spaces, missing page numbers, punctuation errors — all of the little things that try to sneak through once the editing is complete. The goal here is to get your manuscript as close to perfect as humanly possible.

“One of the best things that happened to me in 2020 was being referred to Travis Tynan as my proofreader…
Travis has managed to transform an otherwise mundane and tedious process into something I look forward to each time I prepare a manuscript. He goes way beyond just correcting the typical typos and punctuation errors; he takes the time to explain why he has made the changes, and offers suggestions on other alternatives that might make a sentence or paragraph read more smoothly. He doesn’t just fix my mistakes, I think he helps me learn to be a better writer, which is something every writer should strive for.”
