Publishing - Birmingham, England, United Kingdom
We specialise in helping indie novelists get published. We use a tried-and-tested system. We provide two types of edit: first a development edit, and then a copy-edit.The developmental edit makes general points about your novel, praising the good aspects and also identifying the weaknesses. It's a macro, big-picture view which highlights elements like structure, theme, plot, characters, narrative, pace and dialogue. You then improve the manuscript with further work based on your editor's guidance. When you do the rewriting, you stay in control of your text, so it's still totally your book. We as editors guide and encourage you through the rewriting process so that you can shape, chop and trim to bring out its potential, and that's what you're doing when you rewrite the selected passages – following your developmental editor's suggestions.After you've finished rewriting, your editor is still on hand to read your revised version, tightened up and improved. The excess has been trimmed away, the weaker parts improved, and the essential quality of the novel is revealed. When you and your developmental editor are both satisfied with the overall shape and structure of your text, we do a copy-edit from start to finish. The copy-edit weeds out mistakes of grammar, punctuation and spelling, and improves the flow and clarity of your writing.Now, you've got an excellent novel! You can send it to an agent, or publish it yourself. Either way, we'll publicise it on our Betterwrite website.
