Manuscript Evaluation Service
If you are getting rejection slips on a book that you really believe in, or if you just want to know if the first three chapters of your current work is commercial material, the RT BOOK REVIEWS Manuscript Evaluation Service can help.
We have compassionate, experienced editors, who also read for New York publishing houses, and who are dedicated to helping you improve your work and get published. They will read your submission and then prepare for you a detailed, written critique, complete with suggestions on how to fix whatever it is they feel misses the mark. Their feedback is candid and professional--something that friends can't always give to you, and something that the publishing houses editors don't have time to give you.
All you need to do is send a copy of your work to RT BOOK REVIEWS Manuscript Evaluation Service. Include SASE for the return of your material. An accompanying cover letter is helpful to the evaluator; mention any rejections the manuscript has already received, or just feel free to ask whatever questions concern you. Allow four weeks for the critique to be prepared and returned to you.
If you would like more information on our manuscript evaluation service, e-mail nancy@RTBookReviews.com or call the RT office at (718) 237-1097 (ext. 12) (Mon.-Fri, 8am - 4pm EST).
