Bare Bones Critique

Our most affordable option. Writers receive a one-page written critique per every 100 manuscript pages. We'll discuss what's working and what needs work as well as suggestions for improvement after a thorough reading of the manuscript. 

Manuscript Critique

We tell you what's working and what needs work, making comments throughout the manuscript as well as a general evaluation of the manuscript as a whole (as described above). We offer suggestions for improvement.

Standard Edit

Our standard editing service corrects punctuation, spelling, and grammar mistakes along with improper subject/verb agreement, shifts in tense, passive and weak verb construction, and structural problems.

In creative works, we also point out plot and character problems, "telling" instead of "showing," story arc and pacing problems, as well as other issues, all while preserving your unique voice.


Standard Edit & Critique

Our standard edit and critique includes all of the above, plus an in-depth critique of the manuscript: What's working, what needs work, and suggestions for strengthening and improving your manuscript. We focus on such things as point of view, voice, dialogue, and pacing to give you an overview of your story.

Flex Edit

We know it's hard. With so many financial obligations to meet, the idea of having a book-length manuscript edited might seem unaffordable.

So here's our idea. Send the manuscript to us in smaller chunks. One or two chapters a week or the first fifty pages. Maybe you have to skip a month because funds are tight. No problem! You decide the pace you'd like to work at and the amount of pages to send. The point is to start the process!

Let us help you whip your manuscript into shape in manageable bites. After all, we're flexible.
