Novel Manuscript

Writing your novel manuscript is a major accomplishment, but it doesn’t mean you’re ready for publication. Even a strong creative writer can and will make a plethora of mistakes regarding grammar, spelling, and punctuation. Finding a good editor for your novel is critical to ensuring your technical mistakes do not turn off readers or potential publishers.

 

Additionally, a strong editor can also make important contributions to the shape and structure of your novel. They’ll show you where cuts and edits can be made to description, character, and scene, making your story easier to read and understand. It can even increase the effectiveness and impact of your writing. At the same time, an independent editor won’t interfere with your creative vision as you ultimately control the direction of the process.

 

Other ways an editor can help with your novel manuscript:

​

● Checking for consistency in character and place names, plot points, and descriptions

● Fact checking real-world references

● Offering tips and recommendations to meet your goals for the novel

● Offering suggestions to fill in gaps you may need help completing
