Sample Edit
If you’re not sure yet whether hiring an editor is right for you, I offer a sample editing service which is an edit of a 5,000 word sample of your choice. The sample does not have to be from the beginning of the manuscript, I recommend a sample that includes both narrative and dialogue so you can get the best results from your sample. The sample edit includes:
All the features from a content edit: looking at the structure, story, pacing, continuity, characterisation, intent, and direction of your work as well as the style and quality of your writing
Recommendation on further edits based on what I read

I’d recommend this for anyone who isn’t sure what kind of edit they need or writers who want to edit their manuscripts themselves but need a little guidance to get going.
