Bundled Editing Services

All new clients receive a free sample edit (1,500 words). This ensures we are a good fit and that you like my editing style. 

***Please review the submission process below before booking.***

Submission Process

Let's talk bundle deals!

Dual Package: Line Editing + Copy Editing

Trifecta Package: Line Editing + Copy Editing + Proofreading

Trifecta Package: Line Editing + Copy Editing + Proofreading

Are you in need of line editing and copy editing, both of which are recommended for every book, but only want/have time for two passes? Brazen Hearts Author Services offers a discount for bundling these services. 


We will review your writing for the entire list of services mentioned under line editing and copy editing.


This service includes TWO editing passes: one streamlined pass for line edits AND copyediting, and one final pass to make sure all errors were addressed. 


All edits will be made to your manuscript using Track Changes and Comments in Microsoft Word, using The Chicago Manual of Style and the Merriam-Webster Dictionary for reference.  

Cost: $0.018 per word


PLEASE NOTE: A streamlined initial edit that includes both line and copy edits simultaneously can be extensive and result in several thousand edits/suggestions. Brace for impact.


 An additional proofreading pass can be added at any time during the editing process if you feel a third pass is needed to make sure we catch as much as possible.


Cost for an additional third pass: $0.002 per word

**If you prefer to separate line and copy edits to avoid being overwhelmed, a fourth pass can be added for an additional fee**


All edits will be made to your manuscript using Track Changes and Comments in Microsoft Word, using The Chicago Manual of Style and the Merriam-Webster Dictionary for reference. You will also receive a detailed editorial letter containing our thorough analysis after the developmental edit.

Cost: $0.027 per word

How about just an add-on?

Partial Line Edit

Are you in need of both copy editing and line editing but are on a tight budget? Listen, I hear you! Brazen Hearts Author Services offers a discounted partial line editing service that can be added to your copy editing package.


A partial line edit would target the big-picture items (filler words, filter phrases, modifier drama, word choice, repetition, etc.). But instead of fixing/pointing out every single case, I would point out the first 3-5 instances with examples of how to fix them, then leave the bulk of the work for you to fix using Find and Replace or your own "eagle eyes."


This service will be completed during the TWO editing passes included in copy editing and will be completed simultaneously in the first pass—not as its own third pass. 


All edits will be made to your manuscript using Track Changes and Comments in Microsoft Word, using The Chicago Manual of Style and the Merriam-Webster Dictionary for reference.  

Cost: +$0.004 per word

(total of $0.014 per word when added to a $0.01 per word copy edit)

Brazen Heart's Submission Process

  • Contact Brooklyn at bhauthorservices@gmail.com to discuss editing availability and to schedule your services.
  • I will happily complete a sample edit or proofread (1,500 words or less) to make sure we are a good fit and that you like my particular editing style. This sample should typically be pulled from the middle of the book to ensure we can judge the full scope of work needed, but earlier in the book will also be accepted.
  • I require a $150 nonrefundable deposit to hold your editing date on my calendar. For projects under 20,000 words, the deposit decreases to $75. This deposit goes toward your final invoice, but it is forfeited if you cancel.
  • An invoice for your remaining balance will be sent via Wave Invoicing when I begin work on your manuscript. Your balance must be paid in full before the edited version is sent back to you unless otherwise agreed upon.
  • If a payment plan is needed, please state that when booking. All payment plans must be worked out prior to the final invoice being sent when work begins.
  • If you need to reschedule your services, please contact me as soon as possible! I try to flexible and will do my absolute best to accommodate you, but I cannot guarantee you a spot if my calendar is booked. 
  • Please email your manuscript in Microsoft Word format the morning of (or the night before) our agreed-upon start date. Font, size, and paragraph spacing (single or double) does not matter.
