I will read up to any thirty pages of your manuscript, then return the pages with margin comments as well as a one-page editorial letter of my observations and suggestions on elements such as formatting, tone, style, and narration. Afterward, I will be available for email regarding clarifications about the letter or additional services. $250 flat fee.

You have a complete but rough manuscript. I will read it in its entirety and provide an editorial letter of at least six pages regarding elements like its narration, setting, pacing, and characterization.
