Critique/Editorial Review

We'll read your manuscript cover to cover and then send you an evaluation that addresses the strengths of the novel or novella, as well as addressing areas that could use improvement. Length of evaluation will vary depending on length of document and items that need addressed.

We’ll give you our opinion on plot, believability of characters, and quality of your writing. An Editorial Review is just enough information to point you toward revisions that can dramatically increase the book's chance for success, whether submitting to a traditional publisher, or going the self-publishing route.

A critique is recommended after you have finished rewrites, but before a substantive or line edit.

Note
: This critique does not include editing of grammar, spelling, etc.

Developmental Editing

We'll read your manuscript cover to cover. Using “track changing” and “comments” we will addresses the strengths of the novel or novella, as well as addressing areas that could use improvement.We’ll give you our opinion on plot, believability of characters, and quality of your writing. We will also address continuity, flow, and some grammar, spelling, and typos (light line editing). A Developmental Edit will help you as the author achieve your vision for the novel while creating a readable and enjoyable experience for the reader.

A developmental edit is recommended before a line edit or proofread.
