Manuscript Evaluation
What it is?
Manuscript evaluation provides a focused assessment of your manuscript, designed to highlight its strengths and identify areas for improvement. Instead of delivering a detailed report, I offer insightful feedback through in-line comments, endnotes, and footnotes directly within your manuscript. This approach allows you to receive targeted suggestions that refine your story while preserving your unique voice.
Unlike developmental editing, which involves in-depth revisions and suggestions, manuscript evaluation serves as an editorial review. I focus on essential elements such as plot structure, character development, pacing, and overall narrative impact. This service aims to provide you with a clear understanding of your manuscript's strengths and potential, enabling you to make informed decisions for your next steps.
When to choose manuscript evaluation?
If your manuscript feels complete but you're not ready for detailed developmental editing, a manuscript evaluation is the perfect next step. This service is ideal for authors who want to assess whether their ideas and story are resonating effectively. Ask yourself:
Do I need a professional opinion on my manuscript’s strengths and weaknesses?
Are my plot and character arcs working as intended?
Is my overall narrative engaging enough for readers?
If you’re unsure about your manuscript's impact and need feedback without diving into extensive revisions, it's time to consider a manuscript evaluation.
