Grammar is not the only bogeyman…

The Tunnel Betwixed front cover


Since I launched my range of Pay As You Go Services for authors in January, I have been thrilled, and amazed by the demand for the service.   As the months have passed I have noticed that there seems to be a wide-spread belief that if you simply fix the grammatical errors in the book, then you will have an end product that is fit for publication.


Unfortunately, this rarely seems to be the case, and while there will always be manuscripts that need a full and thorough edit (and in some cases, major re-writing and revision) I am also coming across lots, that with some work on areas such as sentence structure, tense and viewpoint, would have a very good chance of success, in what is let’s face it, a brutal marketplace.


With that in mind, I am now launching my MANUSCRIPT HEALTH CHECK


The total cost of this service is just £75 ($126.03) Payable in 2 installments.  Once you have paid the first installment of £20 (33.62)  I will read the manuscript and provide you with a FULL assessment of it’s strengths and weaknesses.  Provided  that I am satisfied at this stage that it is not going to require a full re-write, or major revision,  then I will invoice you for the remaining balance and iron out issues with the following:


Viewpoint


Tense


Sentence Structure


And yes…Grammar


If after completing the assessment, I feel that major work is required, you will have the option of paying upfront for a full edit (current price £300 $504.24) or taking up my Pay As You Go Option  Please note the initial fee of £20 is for the time it takes me to undertake a full assessment of your manuscript and is non refundable.  I can also provide testimonials from satisfied customers.
