Introducing Specialized Editing Services for Academic Manuscripts
You’ve spent years working on your dissertation, and now you are considering how to share that work more widely. Whether you are looking at publishing with an academic press, or would like to reach a broader general audience, there are changes in organization, style, tone, and emphasis to be considered.
I’ve had the privilege of working with several academic authors through this process already, one of whom now has a contract with a university press; the other has placed his book with a content-specialist publisher.
I'm pleased to now offer two editorial packages specifically designed to assist you in transforming your own work.
