Words need coherency and structure to be impactful. Professional editing services offered by The Book Firm ensure that everything from the tiniest grammatical and punctuation errors to weak plot, unrealistic storylines, flat characters lacking depth, and stilted dialogue are reviewed, revised and polished.
The editing team at The Book Firm comprises published authors, PhD students of literature and industry critics who work on the following elements to make your draft a page-turner.
A plot with a clear begging, a central conflict that drives the story and unexpected developments that keep the reader hooked is a key to capture and hold a reader’s attention from first till last word. We help bring a balance of conflict, surprise and satisfying endings to keep the readers on edge while providing them a sense of closure.
A story is only as good as its characters. Characters who lack depth, constantly make poor decisions, exist only to advance another character’s arc, have no realism and aren’t relatable undermine the story no matter how good the world around them is. Our developmental editing services help you bypass these pitfalls to make your book memorable and engaging.
Can you transport your readers into another world by tapping into all their senses and create a vivid picture that seems real. Figurative language and personification of inanimate plot devices can set the mood and tone for a surprising twist your reader may not have expected. Our editorial support team can bring forward immersive worlds you need to build contexts and enhance our story.
Alternating between fast and slow pacing, parallel narratives, time jumps and irregular sequences can annoy the reader and lull the narrative. Poorly written sentences and overexaggerated dialogues will only disappoint and disrupt the natural flow of conversation. We add subtext, dream sequences and flash-forwards to chuck out the unnecessary plot points, and advance the story at just the right pace without skipping any key plot points.
Bringing in years of writing, editing and publishing experience, our editing team currently includes five published authors, two former magazine editors and three literature students with a PhD to their name. Combined, we offer your work the right creative touch it needs without straying from research and fact-based details that enhance the plotline and give it credibility. Our editing team leads are notorious for their attention to detail and a comprehensive understanding of writing styles based on book genre and intended audience. We have the ability to adapt to multiple writing styles and identify the styling inconsistencies as well as meeting tight deadlines.
As an author of a first draft, you may need book editing experts to polish your manuscript, whether fiction or non-fiction. Before you talk o us, take a look at these questions and see if you have the right answers.
Our editing services will ensure that your writing is clear, concise, and error-free.
