These
companies will spend your money telling you how to rewrite your
manuscript. They will talk to you about story arcs, secondary
plots, and dialogue tags. That’s what they do; that's what
you pay them to do. And that’s great if that’s what you
need. I don't do this type of developmental or substantive editing.
If
you need someone to help you with your plot, pacing, or other
developmental elements, I can recommend an excellent, experienced,
and affordable "book therapist." Click here for
the link to her site.
