MANUSCRIPT ASSESSMENTS:
I can do a partial or full manuscript assessment depending on your needs. As part of my manuscript assessment services, I offer a comprehensive assessment of your manuscript, focusing on:
- Structure
- Pacing
- Plot
- Character
- Themes
- Voice
- Dialogue
- Setting
The report will include:
- 2-4 pages (depending on length of manuscript), outlining your manuscript’s strengths and weaknesses
- Comments on genre suitability
- Advice on market suitability if requested/necessary
ADD ONS
- Marked up manuscript: I can mark up your manuscript with suggestions and detailed examples to illustrate the changes that I feel will strengthen your manuscript. This will give you a more indepth editorial to help you truly make your manuscript shine
- One on One Chat: Being an author myself, I understand how personal this is to you, so I also offer the personal touch. Upon request, I can have a one-hour face to face chat with you about your work either in person or via Skype or phone call
TURNAROUND TIME
4-8 weeks depending on length of manuscript and whether you’ve included any add-ons to your package
