Editing Services
Nobody ever wrote a masterpiece without feedback on early drafts and you shouldn’t be expected to either. This constructive editing service will help you revise, improve and publish your work by:
Enhancing characterisation
Tightening structure/shape
Making sentences flow better
Improving language choices
Advising on plot/story
Correcting spelling/grammar
Adopting a positive approach, Peter will use in-line comments and track changes to critique your submission, helping you to re-draft the best version possible of it. He will also write a few paragraphs suggesting possible improvements and any background reading he feels may be important.
Choose to have either 3,000, 5,000 or 8,000 words critiqued, and receive feedback within one week. Alternatively, get in touch to discuss a longer project.
