About this service

Summary

I use a precise and structured guide to critique stories objectivly, and without bias. This allows your writing to get to the next level with tried and tested methods, without becoming overly formalaic.

Process

The first step is to read and understand your writing. If provided a plot for a story or novel, reading it and understanding the themes, charecter motivations, and aspirations for the story. This is the same for a full work, or other type of story overview. Once done, evaluating it against pre-existing work, and templates for proper story structure. Once this is done, I will write up a report stating things done correctly, done incorrectly, and my reccomendations for changes, such as adding extra scenes, restructing scenes, or removing scenes. Once done, you will be provided this report to use in perfecting your work at the highest level.

What's included

  • Write Up of Story Structure, recommendations and critique

    I accept story boards, plotting sheets, or fully written stories and I will edit them for plot structure, and overall high level choices. This could include pacing, beats, charecters, and other elements of creative writing.
