Manuscript Critique

With a manuscript critique, WriteByNight will read through your manuscript and provide detailed written commentary to identify what’s working, what’s not, what could be improved, and how. We’ll then meet with you to discuss the feedback in depth and make recommendations for next steps.

We consider large craft issues such as plot, structure, setting, characterization, point of view, voice and style, as well as smaller issues such as consistency, repetition, and descriptive details.

$35/hr. for critique + $99/1-hour meeting

Includes:

• Preliminary Q&A to determine your needs, goals, preferences, and expectations
• Full read-through of the manuscript
• Detailed editorial feedback and commentary throughout the manuscript
• Meeting to review and discuss the work completed

“[WriteByNight] was able to find problems that I knew existed and couldn’t quite articulate. [They] helped me sculpt my story in the best of possible ways, and for that I am eternally grateful.” — June Day, Austin, Texas
