Manuscript Evaluation
Not sure what your next editing steps are for a project? You might be looking for a manuscript evaluation. I’ll provide you with a report of approximately 8 to 12 pages highlighting strengths and points to address for future revisions.
To gauge what a potential project with me could look like, please peruse the example below.
Please note that the details of this project, including the excerpt, are fictitious and are for illustrative purposes only. I assess all projects on an individual basis to account for unique scope, goals and needs. Reach out to talk things over with me!
Example Project
Scope
Carlos has finished the first draft of his 80,000-word fantasy novel. He knows it needs some work, but he’s not sure where to start. He thinks an editor could help point him in the right direction, but he doesn’t think he’s ready to invest in a full edit at this stage. He contacts Elixir Editorial for advice and is recommended a manuscript evaluation. The report he’ll receive will help him with his own revisions right now and arm him with more information if he’s considering a full edit in future.
Estimate
The evaluation will take approximately 6 business days.
The estimated cost for Carlos’s evaluation of his 80,000-word novel is $1,200 plus taxes.
Excerpt
The excerpt below contains highlights from the three major sections of Carlos’s manuscript evaluation report: strengths, larger points to address and quick fixes. Carlos can ask questions to clarify the feedback.
