CONTENT EDITING WITH TRACKED CHANGES
(ALSO INCLUDES COPY EDITING/PROOFREADING)
Your elation is high. You finished the draft of your first novel. You’ve had several friends critique your manuscript, including one from your writing group. You think you are ready to publish your book, but since it is a first, the uncertainty lingers. Have your friends and fellow writers been too nice, afraid to call out your disconnects and continuity problems? Have they heaped praise on your character and plot development from a slanted perspective? Who you gonna’ call? Ardent Writer who can provide a professional scrub with BOTH content editing and copy editing (proofreading).
Content editing is a line by line edit
Content editing is a line by line edit of your draft manuscript. Content editing examines your characters, plot development, dialogue, and content. It suggests ways to trim extraneous content that adds little to the over-all plot in order to trim your word count. It addresses any content that conflicts with other content in your manuscript, citing the disconnects so that you can trim or add narrative fixes. If you have continuity issues, such as timeline inconsistencies or character inconsistencies, they are discribed as comments in our review. Any point-of-view issues are addressed.
Importantly, selecting content editing also results in a copy edit of punctuation, spelling and grammar.
The author receives a tracked changes document so that all content issues are viewed as side notes/comments. Suggested changes, including those from the copy edit, are red-lined.
BONUS – If a client needs to talk to the editor, phone discussions of the author’s manuscript can be arranged to go over any questions raised by the author over comments or suggested changes. These discussions are made with no increase in the quoted price!
