Question 1

What is the difference between editing, rewriting, and ghostwriting?

Accepted Answer

The editor provides editing services and does not rewrite or ghostwrite academic work.Editing begins with writing you have already produced. The editor works with what is on the page, identifies areas that may need your attention, and provides changes, comments, or questions to help you keep revising your own work.Rewriting means another person substantially replaces your writing with language they have created. The editor will not write missing paragraphs or sections or turn your notes or outline into academic prose.Ghostwriting means another person creates original content that you present as your own. This could include writing a chapter or section, developing an argument you have not written, conducting research on your behalf, or producing other required academic content for you to submit as your work.

During intake, a brief excerpt may be screened for potential originality, plagiarism, or AI-generated content concerns. Your entire manuscript is not routinely submitted to a third-party screening tool.Screening results and other indicators may prompt closer review, but no single indicator or screening tool is considered definitive proof of AI use. Significant concerns about originality or authorship may lead to the request being declined.
