Introspection Editing
Helping scholars publish their best work
Preparing writing for publication is difficult. Let me make it easier.
Jeremy Rehwaldt, PhD
Editing Services
Are you polishing a manuscript for publication? Putting the finishing touches on your dissertation? Looking for someone to walk alongside you as you restructure your book?I work with manuscripts at all stages of development, helping you put your best foot forward. Over the past twenty-five years, I have edited more than 250 book-length manuscripts. I have worked most often with individual scholars and university presses publishing nonfiction in the humanities and social sciences. I have also worked on educational curricula, how-to manuals, technical archaeological monographs, and a debut mystery novel. For more than a decade I taught a first-year college writing course. That hands-on experience is supplemented by graduate education from Vanderbilt University and Harvard University.Editing packages
Basic copyediting (4 cents/word) cleans up the text and corrects sentence-level errors related to grammar, punctuation, and spelling. References will also be formatted as needed. I’ll include a style sheet describing style decisions and query awkward phrasing or other issues in the text.
Premium copyediting (6 cents/word) includes all the elements of basic copyediting, but it goes several steps further, adding suggested rewrites, an analysis of your argument, and more.
“The Works” (8 cents/word) includes all the elements of premium copyediting but adds personal coaching and up to five revisions of the edited text. This package is great if you’d like some additional support in managing the writing project and staying on track.
I’d be happy to create a custom package to meet your specific editing needs.

testimonials
“Jeremy is more than a great copyeditor. He provides feedback, on request, about organization, logic, and evidence—in short, the foundations of a good book.”
— Dr. Edward Curtis IV, Professor“Jeremy has been a guide and a very valuable collaborator with me—a nonnative English speaker writing my first monograph in English. Jeremy has become a colleague I trust. He made my manuscript an intellectually stronger and more well-written work. Without his help and guidance, my work wouldn’t be where it is right now.”
– Dr. Esther Fernandez, Assistant Professor
