We could talk for ages and pages about the
importance of good editing. But some before and
after examples of chapters we've edited ourselves
will tell the story much more quickly. We've also
helped some authors write winning proposals for New
York publishers; two of these appear at the bottom
of this page.
Editing
Sample 1: Fictional Historical Novel, River of
Reckoning
The first is an edit of an historical novel,
River of Reckoning. It's a 900 page
narrative of the Missouri River, that spans the
period from 1350 to the present era.
