Proofreading and Copy-Editing Wizards

Welcome to Book Magic where our proofreading, copy editing, manuscript evaluation, and rewriting services transform your raw manuscript into a professional, polished piece that is ready for publication. We provide critiques, which assess everything from character development and background setting to readability and plot resolution, and copy-editing packages, which will ensure that your work is grammatically correct and free of pesky typos and spelling errors. After we finish, you will reread your material and say, “Wow! Did I really write that? It sounds great!”

At Book Magic, we have over twenty-five years’ experience copy editing short stories, resumes, book proposals, query letters, and full-length fiction and nonfiction books. We also provide manuscript evaluations, which allow you to benefit from a professional critique of your manuscript before it goes to print. We work with authors all over the world, and a number of our manuscripts have been accepted by traditional publishers. Many of our authors have also chosen to self-publish; we help you every step of the way by connecting you to the best formatting and cover art experts who know all about print books and electronic mediums so that your book will be available on Amazon, Sony, Barnes & Noble, and a wide variety of online stores.

Professional English Editing Services

Since our business is international, we work closely with American and Canadian writers. We copy edit books using American spelling, Canadian spelling, British spelling, and Australian spelling. Sigrid Macdonald, the owner and CEO of Book Magic, grew up in New Jersey, so American English is her default language, but she has spent more than three decades in Canada and is equally familiar with the nuances in Canadian spelling that make it different from American. Also, Sigrid has extensive experience working with clients who have English as a second language. These writers tend to make particular mistakes with prepositions and verb tenses.

We are also friendly and approachable. Sigrid and her team are not only professional editors, but many are authors. Sigrid has written three books and two short stories, along with numerous articles that have been published in The Globe and Mail, Canada’s national newspaper; the well-renowned American magazine Justice Denied; and the Women’s Freedom Network Newsletter based in Washington, DC. As writers, we know how nerve-racking it can be to hand your embryonic hard work over to a stranger. Will that person be constructively critical? Will they understand your message? Will they make time for you? Yes, yes, yes!

Here at Book Magic, you are not a number. You are another writer just like us—a writer with dreams, creativity, and a vision. Maybe you’re sensitive; you want feedback, but you don’t want anyone to hurt your feelings or tell you that your work is no good. Or you could be picky; you want input, but you need to have complete control over your manuscript. Maybe you want the hard, cold truth with no sugar coating. You’ll have that here. First, our sole objective when we evaluate manuscripts is to provide feedback that is helpful to you. We are tactful, but we are honest because we want your book to be as good as it possibly can be. Second, we do everything using Microsoft Word’s tracking feature, so you can accept or reject any of our suggestions. You have complete control. Third, we go out of our way not to change your voice. We are here to transform your work into something better, not to make it unrecognizable.
