With affordable written feedback and actionable next steps, a nonfiction editorial assessment can help you look at your topic, your argument, and your writing in new ways. This helps you position your book to work seamlessly with your other business plans and better connect with the readers who need it most.
Nonfiction Editorial Assessment AssessmentDeep feedback on your full manuscript and outline, plus extensive comments throughout the manuscript. Perfect for new authors looking for ways to improve the quality of their book at a fundamental level.
I’ll point out where you might be missing important reader cues, suggest ways to present your best argument, and look for more effective ways to reveal information logically to readers. Then I’ll offer advice on your opening pages that you can apply to your entire manuscript.
Editing can be expensive; for full-length books, even a basic copyedit can add up quickly. Well before a full edit—where you’ll be paying by the word—early editorial assessments give you time to reflect on editorial feedback and work on your own revisions before you start to pay for more editing.
Nonfiction authors are often so knowledgeable about their topic that they forget what it’s like to approach it with fresh eyes. It’s easy to lose track of what someone who isn’t an expert might need to know so they can follow along. I may not be an expert in your field, but I am an expert in suggesting ways to enhance any reader’s experience learning about your topic.
When readers spend their time, money, and attention on something an author has written, they deserve a professional-quality book. A nonfiction editorial assessment can help strengthen your memoir, how-to, or self-help book so it best meets the needs of the people who will benefit from it the most.
