CONTENT EDITING:
​
​This is where an editor looks at your manuscript from the “big picture” viewpoint. A content editor keeps her finger on the pulse of the message while making sure the manuscript is well-written. She will ask these questions: Is the theme or plot of the book well-developed and organized? If it is a novel, is there good story-telling and snappy dialog? Does the story move at a good pace? Are the characters original and believable? Are the sub-plots well-integrated? With both fiction and non-fiction, are there contradictions, inconsistencies, factual errors or discrepancies? Is there an introduction and conclusion? Is the book written for the right target market and will it grab attention?
