Welcome to Diverse Voices Press Author Services
We provide authors with customized book publishing services, one-on-one support, expert book design, editing, and marketing services. While yes there are fees involved, writers receive 100% of their royalties.
Editorial
Diverse Voices Press offers three editing options for authors: Line Editing, Copy Editing, and Proofreading. These various levels of editing services cover everything from basic grammar and misspelling corrections to review of the story narrative, story development, characterization, and sentence structure. We offer options to ensure that each author is satisfied with their editing service.
Content editing: Our editors check the formatting, vocabulary, structure, style, flow, and overall content of a document. The editors weed out any errors and inconsistencies as well as annoying writing “quirks” that may confuse the reader.
Copy editing: The copy editors identify errors in grammar and spelling as well as inconsistencies of terminology or elements of the story’s plot.
Proof editing: Our editors check for any last-minute errors that may have been omitted in the previous in-depth edits. The proofreading will polish and refine the manuscript to perfection. The final proofreader will not be the same editor who worked on the previous content and copy editing.
