Editorial Assessment
A 60,000 word manuscript would start at $900
If you’ve already done a round or two of revisions and want to know how close you are to a polished draft, an Editorial Assessment is a great fit. This service offers big-picture feedback with slightly more detail than a Manuscript Evaluation—but without the deep dive of a Developmental Edit.
​
My aim is to assess your story’s readiness for the next stage of editing or publishing and help you fine-tune major structural elements. Think of it as a tune-up before the more granular work begins or before moving forward in the publishing process.
​
Included in this Service:
​
-
Assessment of structure, plot, pacing, and overall flow
-
Comments on character development and arcs
-
Considerations of genre, audience, and market expectations
-
Notes on clarity, tone, and coherence
-
Light marginal comments
​
Included in Final Delivery:
​
-
Editorial Letter (4–6 pages) with detailed feedback and revision advice
-
Annotated copy of your entire manuscript with in-line comments
-
1 email follow-up to discuss questions or clarify edits (within 30 days of delivery)
