My Developmental Editing Process
To begin, I’ll immerse myself in your manuscript, reading it thoroughly and analyzing all of the elements we’ve discussed. Once I’ve completed my in-depth review, I’ll provide feedback in two ways:
1. Annotated Manuscript: I’ll insert comments and suggestions directly within your manuscript.
2. Detailed Report: You’ll also receive a comprehensive editorial report (5 to 15 pages) outlining areas for improvement and offering specific, actionable recommendations for your story.
