Please note that we typically edit your work electronically, utilizing Microsoft Word’s Track Changes feature, which allows you to accept, modify, or reject our editors’ changes. We can also edit on hard copy, although this method isn’t as effective for the author since the changes can’t be clicked off to produce a clean copy so he/she can see how the edited version reads without being distracted by the editing.

Turnaround times vary per project.
