Coaching & Editing

An in-depth critique including:

• Developmental and structural assessment
• Stylistic assessment
• Strengths, weaknesses and areas to develop.

A one-to-one session with the editor to discuss your feedback, ask questions, and get the editor’s professional guidance on your next steps.

A tailored action plan providing clear, professional insight into how best to move forward with your manuscript.

Pre-Edit: a thorough overview to provide you with an informed perspective and clear expectations.

Edit – Stage 1: a 1st edit focusing on content, style, flow and clarifications required.

Edit – Stage 2: a comprehensive line-by-line edit & 1st thorough proofread.

Edit – Stage 3: a penultimate edit to capture any remaining issues.

Edit – Stage 4: a final edit & proofread of a proof copy of the book.

At each stage, you’ll receive a detailed editorial report highlighting what’s working, what needs attention, and why – with recommendations to guide your revisions.

After each editing round, you’ll have a one-to-one session with your editor to discuss the feedback, ask questions, and plan your next steps with confidence and clarity.
