Editing

Have a book on your agenda? Already published? Manuscript in progress?

It's never too early to think about the copy-writing and editing of your work. Coaches Oasis team can recommend experienced resources to support our members' needs.

We offer three kinds of editing:

Developmental Editing:

If you have a lot of information, have done some research on your topic or have done a lot of writing but can’t make it all make sense, developmental editing is probably what you need. You may have written thousands of words but they’re not organized. You may need to move whole sections, create a stronger outline, have a great opening chapter and find a way to close the book out and get the results you’re seeking.

Line Editing:

Your manuscript is in pretty good shape but it needs a more professional touch. Some sentences may be too long or too short. Some passages may be confusing or unclear. We may need to change some passive voice to active or rearrange some paragraphs. We will tone, shape, and clean up your manuscript without changing the meaning or message of your work.

Basic Editing (proofreading)

You just want us to check spelling, grammar, capitalization, syntax, and basic punctuation. We’ll be your second set of eyes. Every book, every written document needs that second set. We’ll do our best to give you a perfect document and send you off to publishing.
