Line-editing coaching call - learn to do it yourself
Send me 5,000 words taken from your manuscript, and I will line-edit it for you and schedule a one-hour personal Zoom call (or phone call if you'd prefer) to talk you through the various ways you can elevate your manuscript to the next level.
Using examples from your manuscript, I will explain the aspects of line-editing that are relevant specifically to your manuscript, equipping you with all the knowledge you need to ensure your manuscript is the best it can be.
Also included is a written report that supports the Zoom chat.
This is a one-to-one personalised service.

Manuscript Critique
Coming before line editing, a manuscript critique reviews the big picture elements and provides you with an editorial report:
Plot. Pace. Structure.
Conflict. Tension. Voice.
A manuscript critique does not make changes to your text - instead, you will receive a comprehensive report outlining suggestions for you to apply yourself.
Price: £300 +£5/1000 words
MW
Developmental Editing
More intensive than a manuscript critique, developmental editing looks at the same concerns, but provides commentary within the manuscript in addition to the report:
Plot. Pace. Structure.
Conflict. Tension. Voice.
Detailed, actionable comments left within your manuscript, along with chapter summaries and a comprehensive editorial report outlining suggestions for you to apply.
Price: £17/1,000 words (minimum £500)
