Manuscript Editing Services for New Forums Press
We offer three levels of manuscript editing depending on what your manuscript needs. Each is described below so you can choose the service that fits where your draft is right now.
Our copy editing service corrects grammar, punctuation, spelling, citation formatting, and usage throughout your manuscript. Includes a final proofreading pass. Recommended for authors whose argument and structure are solid and who need a meticulous surface review before submitting to New Forums Press. We apply APA throughout.
Our line editing service addresses grammar, syntax, structural coherence, style, and voice — and includes a full copy editing and proofreading pass. Recommended for authors who want sentence-level revision, passive voice reduction, or substantive EFL/ESL correction for a manuscript targeting New Forums Press. The manuscript you receive is complete at every level.
Our proofreading service provides a final review for spelling, punctuation, and typographic errors — for manuscripts that have already been edited and need only a last human pass before submission to New Forums Press. When the writing is done and the deadline is close, this is the right service.
New Forums Press manuscripts are expected to translate teaching and learning research into guidance that faculty can apply to their own courses and programs. Our editors attend to the clarity of the research-to-practice translation, ensure the evidence base is clearly cited in APA style, and flag passages where the practical implications of the research need to be made more explicit for a faculty reader. If you have questions about which service is right for your manuscript, contact us directly. We respond to every inquiry the same day during business hours.
