After a thorough evaluation of your work, one of the qualified experts on
our Staff will give you detailed feedback and recommendations. You
will not only learn what is working in your writing, but what is not. Most
importantly, you will learn how to fix it.
Your Professional Manuscript Review Includes:
- Genre-Specific Advice: You can be sure that your
work will be matched with a professional who has published this same kind of
writing.
- Grammar and Style Suggestions: Your personal
critic will review your writing to point out common grammatical, structural
and stylistic mistakes—mistakes that can mean the difference between a
rejection and a sale.
- A Targeted Market Recommendation: If your
manuscript is marketable as is, or with slight revision, you will get
recommendations for marketing your work-including how to identify the
publications that buy your writing.
