Writing a manuscript cannot be considered an easy task but it is the editing that prepares a manuscript for its final readership. Therefore, finding the right editor for your manuscript is crucial as a skilled editor will vastly improve your chances of being published. So, what should you look for in a manuscript editor?

Michael Lee once remarked that “The first draft reveals the art; revision reveals the artist”. Indeed such is the skill of the manuscript editor who with their experience can enhance your writing to reveal the artist within you. You must reach out to the right one. So, what determines the best manuscript editor for you?

If you are choosing an online editor, as that is the preferred option these days during the COVID pandemic, the process is less time-consuming. You can get a hassle-free service in the fastest possible time.

However, if time is not the primary concern and your focus is principally quality, then how should you choose your editor?

Experience matters

Look for experience. A practised hand is better than a rookie. Years of editing ensures rock-solid experience that makes no mistake in identifying the strengths and weaknesses in your style. Remember that many writers have passed under the radar of experience to become successful writers. They return to the same editors who have a large contribution in building the writer’s identity in the world of published documents. Look at the number of years they have spent in this profession.

Proficiency

You can ask the editors to share some proofs of editing to be certain that they are proficient in the genre of your writing. If not, look for an editor or English editing service that can handle the genre that you are writing in. If you are writing fiction, then there is a vast diversity in fictional work and if your work is nonfictional then a different kind of technical skill is required.

Level

Is the manuscript editing service restricted to editing new writers or have they dealt with established writers? Search for their level of proficiency. You might like to look at their portfolio. Editing new writers can be more challenging, as editors are helping them to reach a publishing house and get their work noticed.

Conclusion

The cost is one of the most crucial parts of your selection. Online editors may come across as affordable but look into the hidden costs and the extra cost they charge for reviews. Editors charge by the word, hour, or complete project. Depending on your budget, you can make the selection. Check on what software they use to perform the editing. Do they edit on MS Word editor? That makes it easier for you to track the edits. You can start by sending 5-10 pages of your manuscript and see how it comes out before you send the entire manuscript. You can take a look at HKNETS, a highly skilled manuscript editing service that works with a team of editors skilled in different genres. You will be pleased with their work.
