The Impact of a Professional Editor’s work
A staggering 90% of self-published books never sell more than 100 copies. This statistic isn’t just a reflection of the story or thetext style; it’s often a direct result of inadequate redacting. A professional editor does more than correct grammar and punctuation, but helps to sell. An experienced editor can provide valuable feedback on story structure and character development. By investing in a good editor, authors significantly increase their chances of success.
The Editor-Author Synergy
Hiring a book editor is not about relinquishing control of your manuscript. The editor’s work is much more. The right editor will:
- Editor will Identify and Resolve Structural Issues.
- Editor will Enhance Your Voice.
- Editor will Provide Constructive Feedback.

A first-time author with a complex fantasy novel might benefit immensely from developmental editing to refine their world-building and character arcs. Conversely, a seasoned author with a well-structured self-help book might only need copy editing and proofreading to polish their stories
