#StetChat A1

I currently offer:
Manuscript Evaluations
Line Editing
Copyediting
Proofreading
Sensitivity Reading

and free beta reading if I have time!
Q1: What editorial services do you currently offer? #StetChat
November 4, 2026 at 9:07 PM
Defining the scope (and sticking to it!!) is essential to launching new services! #StetChat
A4: My first MS evaluation was a flop because I went wayyyyy over scope and ended up writing a dev edit-length editorial letter. Had to get real with myself that if I am going to offer MS evals, I have to limit myself to that scope, or else I’m doing a dev edit for way too cheap. #StetChat

I love line-editing and the challenge of matching an author's voice.

Ooooh yes, this is a great way to dip your toes into a new offering! #StetChat
A3: Every time I've expanded my offerings, it's a result of client demand. A client will sign up for one service, then once I've earned their trust, they'll ask for other services. If the request seems like a good fit, I've found training and used the client request as a test project. #StetChat
