PICTURE BOOK MANUSCRIPT CRITIQUE (Developmental Edits)

$99.00

For $99, I will read your story (fiction or nonfiction picture book manuscripts up to 1000 words – please mention the word count when you contact me), and provide feedback that will answer the following questions:

  1. What’s the writer trying to say? Is the message clear or unclear?

  2. Is the opening strong and compelling? Does the story have a hook?

  3. Is there a character arc? Is the main character well-developed? Why or why not?

  4. Does the main character change or learn something new at the end? Does the character solve her/her own problem?

  5. Is the main character a child or childlike?

  6. Does the story have a plot arc? If yes, does it build to a climax?

  7. If there is no plot, is it a concept book?

  8. Does it have a satisfying resolution? Does the ending grow out of the story? Does it evoke an emotional response and make the reader want to read it again?
