Manuscript Evaluation
A manuscript evaluation is a high-level read through of your manuscript, with an eye out for overall story structure, pacing, character and plot arcs, dropped threads, strengths, and weaknesses. No changes are made to the document.
I’ll provide suggestions guiding you toward the destination of your publishing journey by giving you a birds-eye view of the overall story structure and readability, helping you identify the areas that work well, and those that need further development to navigate your story to a successful completion.
Deliverable:
Summary editorial letter on the global successes and issues found in the manuscript with areas to consider, suggested learning resources, and recommendations on paths to pursue toward publishing as a next step.
Consultation:
x1 one-hour consultation to review and discuss your questions, ideas, and paths forward in the publishing process, or any other support pertaining to the manuscript evaluation. To be redeemed during the service, or within 60 days after the project’s end. Consultation will be recorded upon request.
Timing:
This service takes roughly 3-4 weeks to complete. I dedicate this amount of time to make sure the manuscript evaluation service is providing abundant value to my author clients.
