Manuscript Editorial Review Feedback
July 18, 2024, Writing & Editorial Team
Hello Charles,
Hopefully, you're doing well. Below is the message the Writing/Editing Team has sent your way:
We would like to extend a very warm welcome to you from your editorial team.
We are happy to inform you that we have received your manuscript "LOL AND SORROW." After an initial review, we would like to share our thoughts with you.
Firstly, we are deeply impressed by your book. Your writing and creativity are quite remarkable. Your manuscript is a collection of masterfully crafted short stories that flawlessly blends humor and heartache. Each narrative is richly detailed and emotionally resonant, reflecting the authenticity of real-life experiences. Your storytelling prowess shines through, making every page an engaging and impactful journey. This book is a testament to your exceptional writing talent and profound insight into human emotion.
With that said, we have proofread and formatted a first draft set. However, because we found your book to be very well written, the proofreading changes are few and far between due to the nature of your excellent writing.
We kindly ask that you review these changes and let us know if you approve of them. Please also inform us if we should proceed to proofread in a similar manner throughout the manuscript.
Additionally, we wanted to discuss some essential technical details:
Front Matter Pages: To align your book with the Best International Publishing Standard, we typically include specific front matter pages. These include the Title Page, Copyright Page, Table of Contents, Dedication (if applicable), Acknowledgments (to thank those who have supported or inspired you in your writing journey), and an About the Author page. We've incorporated the data you provided into these pages, and we kindly ask for your review and approval.
Trim Size: The two most prominent trim sizes for books are 6x9 and 8.5x11. We recommend the 6x9 size for your book, especially if it is less than 100,000 words. The 8.5x11 size is for books that have more than 100,000 words. However, the final decision is yours, and we will proceed according to your preference.
Editing Spelling Language Preference: We have edited the first set using US English. If you'd like us to continue with this style, please let us know. Alternatively, if you prefer UK or CA spelling, we are more than willing to accommodate your choice in future sets.
We eagerly await your response and are committed to proceeding as per your preferences. Your input is highly valued, and we are excited to collaborate with you on bringing your exceptional book to its fullest potential.
