Manuscript evaluation and critique:
Novels for children or teens (ages 8-18):
This is a "big
picture" critique: Is your book the best it can be? Is it ready for an
agent or editor? Has it received a number of rejections without clear
feedback? I can read your complete or partial manuscript and evaluate
for:
Plot and story arc Voice Point of view Characterization Dialogue Organization and structure Length Pacing Appropriateness for the intended audience
Copyediting:
General-interest books for audiences of all ages:
I
can review your book manuscript to ensure correct mechanics and
consistent style, in preparation for submission to a publisher or
agent, or for POD publication.
Copyedited elements include:
- grammar - spelling - punctuation - syntax - consistency - clarity - format - editorial style (capitalization, dashes, numbers, etc.) - front matter and back matter (if applicable)
