Manuscript Critique

Before you submit your manuscript for editing get feedback from one of our professional editors. This three-to-four page critique will tell you the strengths and weaknesses of your text. Some questions that will be addressed are:

  • What is the style and purpose of the manuscript?

  • Is the tone correct for the intended audience?

  • Does material need to be added or deleted?

  • Will the manuscript read better if there are organizational changes?

  • Which of the above changes can be handled in the editing process?

  • Which changes need to be addressed by the author before the start of the editing?

  • What level of editing is recommended?
