Story Consultation

It all begins here! Your Story Consultation is the big-picture assessment of your entire story, from beginning to end, and represents the first step in your manuscript’s editorial journey with The Novel View. 

This consultation provides you with all the information you need to move forward. It will identify your story’s strengths, note any areas for improvement, and advise you on your next editorial step. You’ll even receive suggestions for enhancement that you can use to create a more gripping story for your readers.

Line Editing

Line Edits are the fine-tuning step for your story. This is also called a stylistic edit, and it’s performed after all your developmental work has been done.

Because finding just the right words for your story is essential to engaging any reader, this editing step ensures your unique voice and style are maintained throughout the manuscript. It is designed to help you captivate your readers from start to finish, keeping them immersed in your story’s world all the way to the twisty end.

Copyediting

A copyedit is your manuscript’s final editorial step before formatting and proofreading begin. This mechanical edit focuses on all those pesky grammatical details that can trip a reader up and have them stumbling over missing punctuation and clunky transitions.

This vital step ensures your readers will focus on your tale rather than your sentence structure and adjusts the story to conform with the accepted style guides, rules, and conventions of commercial fiction.

I have worked with Angela Crowder for the past three years and have benefited immensely from her expertise. She has weighed in on every one of my short stories and three of my novels. She is insightful, honest, and knowledgeable of my genre—I write amateur sleuth mysteries. Without hesitation, I would recommend her as an editor.
