Editorial Services

Even Pulitzer Prize-winning authors have editors reviewing their work for inconsistencies, errors, repetitive passages and so on. Why not give your book the same level of unbiased scrutiny?

Editor's Analysis  $199  (Included in the Publishing Packs)

You've slaved over every word. You've written and rewritten. You've tried, to no avail, to view it objectively. After all of that, isn't it worth paying a professional editor to help you make your book as professional and technically accurate as possible?

With the Lulu Editor's Analysis service, a professional copy editor reviews your book to give you eight pages of invaluable advice. And perhaps best of all, a full edit of a few pages of your book as a sample, so that you can see what kinds of things should be changed, and the best way to make those changes.

Service includes:

  • A review of your manuscript checking for tone, perspective, complexity, sentence fragments, spelling, syntax, punctuation, flow, and formatting
  • A professional recommendation on whether a full copy edit is in order
  • A 5-8 page sample edit of your manuscript and price quote

See an example of a sample edit. (PDF)

What to submit:

  • Your completed manuscript file

After purchasing the service, Lulu will send you instructions on how to submit your file.

Copy Editing

Your Editor’s Analysis may recommend one of several levels of copy editing for your manuscript. We offer editing exclusively through our Editor’s Analysis service to ensure that you receive the most effective editing possible at the best price.

Since our copy edit prices are calculated depending on the size of your book, we can offer direct quotes for smaller books without an Editor’s Analysis. That way, you can reap the benefits of a full copy edit when your book is too small to sample. If your book has 15,000 words or less, contact us using the sales form at the top of this page.
