If you’re really stumped over which type of editor to hire for your book, get someone who specializes in editorial assessment: an overview of your manuscript that will tell you where you should focus your editing efforts. These types of editors aren’t usually too expensive, yet they can be invaluable to your project. After all, if you have no idea what’s wrong with your book, how can you make a plan to remedy it? Getting an editorial assessment before hiring any other editors is always an astute move, especially for first-time authors who may not be aware of their genre’s publishing standards.
To find the perfect person to perform your editorial assessment, simply sign up to Reedsy and start browsing through our editing professionals. You may even find someone who’ll become a long-term collaborator, since many editors who assess initial manuscripts also do copy and developmental editing. But whether your editor’s assessment comes back brimming with suggestions or with only a few, you’ll be glad you took this step to figure out exactly where you and your book stand.
Successful authors build talented teams around them to bring their book to life. Through the Reedsy Marketplace, you can meet the industry’s top professional book editors, cover designers, book marketers and ghostwriters. Reedsy professionals know the publishing landscape better than a writer knows the taste of hot coffee, come meet them.
