MANUSCRIPT EVALUATION

A manuscript evaluation is a high-level analysis of your book but with much less detail than a full developmental edit. It’s a service that will assess the strengths and weaknesses of a manuscript and provide feedback from an objective point of view.

It’s generally used if you want someone to look at the overarching structure, story and mechanics but do not require a full script markup. Because of the nature of this service, the document will get minimal marginal comments that will tie in with the points made in the editorial letter.

TAKEAWAYS
  • My report detailing my observations while editing your book. This will tie in the points that require additional work and development
  • Your manuscript document with few comments and tracked changes

PARTIAL MANUSCRIPT EVALUATION

Similar to the full manuscript evaluation, this service will go through the first 5,000 or 10,000 words of your script to assess the beginning of your book and highlight strengths and areas for improvement.
