We edit your projects with skill and kindness to bring content that matters into the world.
Edit with skill for Bigger Impact.
Editing is the skill that clarifies and connects your target audience to the ideas you want to communicate in your book or business, and kindness is what we include in the process. An essential step, editing also prepares your manuscript for submission to agents or for self-publication.
If your manuscript has been through our audit, it’s ready for editing, the next step in the development process. Copyediting brings consistency to your work. Beyond correcting grammar and the mechanics of language, copyediting clarifies what you mean to say and showcases your creativity and intelligence.

The Value to You
Not all writers have the skill to be their own editor. When you are close to the work, you can lose objectivity and perspective. If you get too frazzled by the process, you may do more harm than good. Time to put your work in its best light.
You’ll know when you’ve gone as far as you can on your own. If you need a second set of eyes to clarify and polish your existing prose, contact Aroian Editorial. You are nearly there.
What We Edit
Once your audit and coaching are complete, the structure of your book is solid. Now your editor can comb through your manuscript for the details – grammar, content gaps, continuity-of-style and consistency of language.
At Aroian Editorial, we have the skill to delve deeply to examine how you arrange words to inform meaning, voice and style.
- How well are you spelling, punctuating and constructing pages that flow?
- How effectively are you using language to provide clear and meaningful content?
- Where can we bend the rules to elevate your style and make your ideas pop?
We copyedit your work in two rounds. The first round allows you to see our edits and insert corrections and comments. The second round allows us to make final corrections and get clean manuscript copy promptly back to you. At Aroian Editorial, we do everything in our power to set you up for success through our editorial process.
What We Don’t Edit
If we do not believe your manuscript is ready for copyediting, we will notify you. We will not copyedit a manuscript that clearly needs more work.
If you run out of time to work on critical revisions or need a ghostwriter, we don’t judge. Our team can help you with that.
