First Draft Professional Manuscript Evaluation, Storyline Analysis and Editorial Suggestions

$175.00

Your first draft manuscript is done! Congratulations! Often, that initial creative burst of energy feels like a lightning strike. It illuminates your mind and electrifies your world until every word is written. Now it's time to tame that wild, raw story, harness the power within, and make everything stronger.

  • Deepen & strengthen your characters

  • Suggest minor scene improvements

  • Examine story elements, overall theme, story arc, satisfactory conclusion

  • Look at the structure, style, and habitual author writing errors

  • Strengthen dialogue, flow, and timing suggestions

  • Heighten emotional tension

  • Reader POV editorial suggestions   

This is an in-depth SINGLE editorial reading to help push your manuscript in the right direction. You will receive full editorial in-line comments within MS Word format, PLUS a separate letter to the author noting editor insights on all aspects of the novel. This is NOT a line edit or proofreading. Developmental editing will polish the manuscript's rough edges, allowing you to revise and move forward with confidence.
