Work In Progress

Description

The first draft may be the most challenging phase of your Author’s Journey. Beware the Delete and Backspace keys — they lead into the quicksand of endless rewrites. Write boldly and take a break from perfection.

If you share a few opening scenes with us, Second Eyes Editorial will ensure the essentials are in place – vibrant, dynamic characters, an engaging plot, and a clear, consistent point of view.

If you don’t own a spelling, punctuation, and grammar checking tool, we can run ours on any revisions you send us. If you request this, you will receive an “_autochecked” file with your “_2ndeyes” file.

Second Eyes will point out what’s working best and suggest any further revisions to the sequence and pacing of events. We’ll also look at character motivations and arcs and how well the dialog is in-character and relevant to the plot.

If you also send an updated premise and plot theme, we will check how well those align with the draft.
