Preguntas Frequentes
What’s the difference between a manuscript critique and developmental editing?
A manuscript critique is a thorough review of your work that provides valuable feedback on its strengths and weaknesses. While it can be highly detailed, its main goal is to offer a reader’s perspective. For our critiques, you’ll receive an Editorial Report that with our insights and suggestions.
In contrast, developmental editing is a more hands-on process. Here, an editor works directly with you, providing comments right on your manuscript. You’ll work together on plot development, character arcs, pacing, and overall coherence.
What kind of writing do you accept?
Anything where we feel we can offer genuine assistance to the author. We’re happy to look at work in most genres in English and Spanish, including:
- Fiction
- Non-fiction
- Illustrated children’s fiction
- Poetry
- Short stories
How long will my manuscript critique take?
You’ll get your Editorial Report within 2-4 weeks, depending on the length of your manuscript and our current workload. We’ll give you an exact deadline once you’ve reached out to us.
What will I receive?
We’ll send you the Editorial Report in PDF format. The length of the critique will vary depending on the package you choose and the complexity of your manuscript. Generally, expect to receive a report ranging from 1 to 6 pages.
Do you have required submission format?
No. As long as we can read it without too much squinting, we’re good to go. However, we do prefer manuscripts in a standard format like Word or Google Docs. A clear, easy-to-read font like Times New Roman 12 or Arial 11 is a bonus.
