Manuscript evaluations will diagnose your book's issues and give you general advice on how to fix them. It's not as detailed as a developmental edit, and you won't receive in-line manuscript feedback, but if you're looking to give your book a general polish at an affordable price, this service is for you! 

​

Manuscript evaluations are especially great if you:

-want to submit your romance novel to traditional publishers, and are looking to polish your manuscript prior to submission, or

-are self-publishing your romance novel and can't afford a full developmental edit, but still want an expert pair of eyes to assess your manuscript's strengths and weaknesses 

​

​

When I do manuscript evaluations, I look for genre-specific issues related to romance plot structure, character development, tropes, and reader and sub-genre expectations, as well as more general fiction issues like:

-your book's hook

-pacing

-narrative arc

-narrative continuity

-POV

-chapter openers, closers, and transitions

-chapter length

-showing vs. telling

-repetition

-tone

-dialogue

-patterns of grammar, spelling, and language errors (to help you self-edit)
