Editing Services
Every writer needs a good editor behind them and every written work needs a second (or third) set of skilled eyes to ensure the piece accurately conveys the author’s meaning and is presented at its sparkling best.
From newsletters to newspapers and especially full-length novels, Darla Crass has experience to help optimize your work. She is currently the Managing Editor of Lamplighter Mystery and Suspense, an imprint of Lighthouse Publishing of the Carolinas.
I can help you evaluate your writing goals and help you direct your next project toward a publishable end.
Once your work is completed, I offer an overall critique which is less detailed than a substantive edit, but less expensive.
A substantive edit goes through your entire document and looks at specifics such as clarity, character arc, story arc, characterization, setting, dialogue, etc. It is very comprehensive and thus the most costly of my services.
