Marked-up manuscript

The marked-up manuscript is a read-through of the full MS, plus a 2-page editorial letter, and any margin comments on your manuscript. This service is perfect for authors who want to know if they’re on the right track with their draft or revised MS but don’t require a full report. 

The focus of a marked-up manuscript is on developmental editing: looking at both the macro- and micro- level of story and scene to determine what’s working well and areas to improve further. The service is carried out by Core, Market, and Industry editors, and is intended to provide you with “real-time” reader responses on your manuscript. It is not a line edit.
