Manuscript Review
All editorial services begin with a manuscript review. The manuscript review is a full read through of your manuscript from beginning to end with comments and an editorial feedback letter that highlights what's working well with the manuscript and what areas of revision you'll need to address before the manuscript is ready for publication. The review will also provide suggestions for what level of editing will be appropriate for your manuscript—developmental, line- and copyediting, or proofreading—so that you know what level of investment you're likely looking at in the editing process. From there, we'll build an editorial service package that best fits your needs. Click here for more information about service details and rates.
