Line Editing

Your plot is exactly where it needs to be but your novel still isn’t flowing. Line editing provides a detailed review of every line (of course!). Ensure the tone is on point, the grammar makes sense, the word choice fits, and your style shines through. Basically, a combination of developmental editing and copy editing.
