Does Your Book Meet the Exclusive BRIO 5-Point Standard for Success?
We work with many New York publishers and editors who tell us they assess a manuscript's potential based on answers to two obvious questions: Is
it marketable? Is it good?
BRIO
wants you to sell more books and excellent editing is the foundation
of a solid manuscript. We have a 5-Point Standard for evaluation. We review and
score based on:
- Intended Audience (reading level, style, tone)
- Literary Devices (metaphors and similes, foreshadowing, repetition)
- Character Development
- Dialogue and Narrative Flow
- Description (use of imagery, setting)
If you are still unsure whether you need our editing services, ask yourself these
three questions: Has a professional editor evaluated my manuscript? Have
I verified my facts and references? Is it original work?
If you answered "no" to any of the above, fill out our
