Document Driven

A manuscript critique can provide authors with professional appraisal of their work and help bring their work up to publishable standards.

A manuscript critique will identify the manuscript's strengths and weaknesses, including an assessment of plot structure, scene development, viewpoint, characterization, physical setting, narrative style, pacing, central conflict, subplots, dialogue, and writing style.
