Editing, Proofreading and Formatting

Owl Editing improves the consistency and clarity of every kind of writing. The editing process will correct grammatical errors and enhance your word choice, without changing your intended meaning, to give you a clear and more effective presentation.

How It Works

The turn-around time for most short reports or essays is usually within 24 hours. For longer papers or theses, the turn-around is approx. 4-7 days.

Editing changes are "tracked" with the MS-Word "Show Revisions" tool.

APA and MLA Papers, Business and Science Reports

Reviewing the flow and organization of text. Recognizing structure appropriate for the intended audience. Suggesting deletions, additions, or rearrangements (e.g., gaps in content, missing steps, or unclear transitions). Reorganizing material into an appropriate structure and sequence. Recognizing when material would be better presented in another form (e.g., number-laden text as a table or chart, descriptive material as a diagram or illustration, or a long series of points as a list).
