Copy Editing
Copy editing is where grammar, spelling, and punctuation are refined for clarity and precision. Think of it as the polishing stage – the part that makes your writing smooth and error-free.
Here’s what a copy edit looks like:
- Revising sentences to enhance clarity and improve readability.
- Cutting out unnecessary words and repetition.
- Fixing grammar, punctuation, and spelling slip-ups.
- Making sure everything stays consistent – from character names to how dates and numbers are written.
- Following any style guide you need to stick to.
- Flagging anything that might need your input.
It’s all about making your writing the best version of itself.

Proofreading
The proof edit is the lightest level of involvement in the editing process, focusing on a thorough read-through of text that has already been copyedited.
Its goal is to identify and correct superficial errors, such as misspelled words, missing punctuation, extra paragraph breaks, and formatting issues.
Essentially, it serves as the quality control phase of editing, ensuring the text is polished and error-free. This is the final stage before the work is ready for publication.
