A Content Edit focuses on character development, continuity and structure of plot, pace, style and narrative voice. The content edit requires up to three readings of the text. The manuscript will be returned to you with annotations after each reading, and another pass will be scheduled as soon as you return it to me

Deliverable: Detailed commentary inline in your text (I will either return an annotated .DOC file if you send your work in that format, or an annotated PDF otherwise) and a one-page summary.

Time: Typically 4-6 weeks (total) for an 80- to 120,000 word novel.

Note: Content editing does not include Line editing. If you need both, see Literary editing.
