This is a useful and affordable alternative to a full manuscript report or the agent submission package report. The first ten pages are crucial, and very often are enough to gauge the ability of any writer. So if you are struggling to assess your own writing and want to understand your abilities, this is the service for you.
 
I will read all ten pages, and leave mark-up on them using tracked changes. I will also complete a coverage sheet with grades and brief comments, highlighting the strengths and weakness of your writing. 
 
For novels, please ensure your pages are double-spaced, with generous margins, and use a 12pt font. This will equate to 2500-3000 words, around ten pages. My word limit for this service is 3000 words. 
 
For screenplays, please use a standard screenplay layout and send only the first ten pages. 
 
This service is a fixed cost of £50. Once you have bought this service, please send your first ten pages to me as a Word document, and let me know if you have any particular concerns.
 
My turnaround time is usually two weeks from date of purchase, but I can be flexible and complete earlier, depending on my schedule. 
 
Please get in touch before buying if you have any questions:
