Off the Grid Editing prepares manuscripts for Jossey-Bass with attention to argument clarity and to how readily a practitioner can use the research. We work in APA style for education and social science manuscripts, or Chicago where your field uses it, and we apply the Jossey-Bass author guidelines when you send them. Our editors are experienced in higher education, organizational psychology, and leadership writing, where research has to arrive with clear implications for the reader’s own work.
Our Promise
We will ensure that the final draft you receive is completely ready to submit to Jossey-Bass. 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 Jossey-Bass
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.
Grammar and usage, awkward phrasing, repetition, and passive voice corrected, then clarity, concision, sentence structure, transitions, and tone, with your style manual applied throughout and a final proofread. For authors whose argument and structure are settled.
Clarity, emphasis, and paragraph structure: topic sentences, transitions, and sentences reordered within a paragraph, with every fact and claim kept as you wrote it. Includes copy editing and a final proofread.
Spelling, punctuation, typos, capitalization, grammar, and usage corrected with minimal wording changes, for manuscripts that have been edited and need a last check before submission to Jossey-Bass.
Jossey-Bass manuscripts often serve researchers and practitioners in the same pages. We check that the scholarly argument stays accessible to a practitioner, that findings lead to implications a reader can act on, and that the research is reported precisely. The Jossey-Bass author guidelines describe what a proposal should include. 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.
