Hi,
Thank you for the video. Is this developmental editing only for self bublishing or for traditional bublishing as well? Doesn't the traditional publishing have their own editing?

Great question! We have another video that explains this more in detail.

Hey! I am new at this as a self publishing author to be…but here is what I know. Developmental editing is just a type of editing that both self-published and traditionally published authors can utilize. Just depends on the editor you choose Md their expertise.
