Wiley Academic Publishers Manuscript Editing Services
Wiley is one of the world’s largest academic publishers, with a book program spanning medicine, nursing, social sciences, business, and education. Its acquisitions editors are reading manuscripts against the standards of an international scholarly and professional community — which means the prose must be precise, citations must be consistent, and the argument must carry across disciplinary and national boundaries.
Off the Grid Editing prepares manuscripts for Wiley submissions across the disciplines the publisher serves. Our editors apply APA, Chicago, or Wiley house style as your subject area and series require, and attend to the argument clarity and citation consistency that Wiley’s peer review demands. Send any author guidelines from your acquisitions editor and we will apply them throughout.
Our Promise
We will ensure that the final draft you receive is completely ready to submit to Wiley. We work with you until it is ready or refund your payment in full. That commitment has held since 2002.
Our editors do not have access to your manuscript until an order is placed. Your draft is secure until you decide to proceed.
Manuscript Editing Services for Wiley
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 Wiley. We apply APA, Chicago, and house style 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 Wiley. 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 Wiley. When the writing is done and the deadline is close, this is the right service.
Wiley publishes under dozens of imprints and series, each with specific house guidelines and citation requirements. Our editors apply the guidelines specific to your series and subject area. If you have received author instructions from your acquisitions or developmental editor, include them with your manuscript and we will apply them precisely. 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.
