Rewriting service
|
Does your manuscript need complete rewriting? Most people are not born
writers and you may have plenty to say without
being confident that you can deliver it in a readable form, or even in correct
English.
 | Perhaps you’re too busy to set aside time for the work? |
| Maybe you just can’t get your story, your account or
your notes into publishable shape without some help? |
|
|
|
You may even be experiencing difficulties because English is not your
first language. If you’re in this situation our Rewriting service, which demands the very
highest level of editorial skill, will result in a book you will be
proud to have carry your name.
The specialist editor WritersServices provides for the Rewriting service will have
top editorial expertise, with a long
career in publishing and a solid range of editorial skills to draw on. They
may also be
a published
author who writes clearly and with ease, but who has special expertise and
experience in rewriting.
| Rewriting requires a sympathetic understanding of the writer’s intentions and careful attention to
tone and content. |
| We suggest that if you
want to use this service you should send
an email to WritersServices when
you
fill in the order form, setting out what you hope to accomplish with the Rewriting
and what work you think needs doing on the manuscript.
|
| We will pass this on to the editor. The editor will need to read
the manuscript and consider what the writer is intending to accomplish, to assess how long the Rewriting will take and how difficult
the task will be. |
|
We need to charge a small assessment fee
for this, payable in advance. We will quote a fee and payment schedule for Rewriting
after the editor has looked at the manuscript and at that point we will also
confirm how long the work will take.
Typically, the editor might need several weeks for a Rewriting job, but
this depends on length and how radical the rewriting needs to be and it might
well take longer. |
|
The completion date will also depend on the availability of the particular
highly-skilled editor required to work on your manuscript. |

What it costs
Our fee for the initial assessment is £50 for up to 100,000 words, £60 for 100,000 to
150,000 and £70 for 150,000 to 200,000. We keep this fee as low as
possible, but the editor will need to read through the manuscript to assess
the whole work.
The starting point for a Rewriting
job on a manuscript of up to 100,000 words is likely to be in the region of
£1500. This is our most expensive service because of the writing and
editing skills required and the time needed to complete the job. Please remember that we will need the
word count of your manuscript, which your word processor will provide.
Please send your manuscript as one unzipped Word file, unless it is over
125,000 words, when we recommend splitting it into two files.
