Fiction Editing and Proofreading Services

It’s no secret that the print publishing industry is struggling, and manuscripts need to be of a much higher quality than in the past to even get a second glance. That’s why more and more writers are having their work edited prior to submission, rather than expecting a publisher to take care of it later.

Fiction editing sized to fit you

Your manuscript is unique. No literary or mainstream fiction will ever be quite like it. So we tailor our fiction editing services to suit your individual needs. No matter what your style, our fiction editing service ensures your manuscript boasts:

• correct word use, spelling & punctuation
• consistent execution of words & tense
• no incongruous tone, verb tenses or word choice
• well-structured sentences & paragraphs.

But publication-worthy manuscripts encompass more than word-perfect content alone. Elite Editing can give compelling communication to your creative ideas. Let us know if there are certain areas of your manuscript that you’d like our editors to assist you with. Or hand us creative licence to help improve both your manuscript and your writing talent. Our fiction editors can provide advice and suggestions as to:

• the all-important issues of premise, dilemma, crisis, complications, climax & resolution
• compelling pace, plot, characterisation & overall narrative arc
• effective storytelling & scene setting
• tone & style of prose & dialogue
• continuity, time line & factual accuracy
• compliant manuscript formatting to standard publishing industry requirements.

Keep pace with the changing face of fiction publication

Fiction publishing is a tough character to reckon with these days. Publishers have become inundated with drafts, making them time and patience poor. No longer will publishers or literary agents invest in auspicious fiction expressed through sub-par writing. So even if your submission is promising, you are more likely to get a rejection than a request to redraft.

Anyone plotting publication needs a protagonist to champion their hard work. Here is where our specialist fiction editing comes into play. Elite Editing gives you the best shot at publication success by improving your manuscript with superb editorial expertise before an agent or publisher sees it.
