EDITING CONSULTANT SERVICE
The editing consultant service is the process that publishers submit to those books they decide to publish.
Through this process, the excellence of the text is sought in terms of content and form. This complete supervision of the work seeks to combine, give quality and facilitate its understanding. This is achieved by looking for errors or mismatches in the three spaces of creative and textual development: style, structure, and content.
- The style, the form, the how (Verba). In this space we look for punctuation errors, repetitions and redundancies, improper verbal and prepositional uses, passive voices, adjectives, inappropriate gerunds, connectors, dialogues. Also diction verbs, barbarisms, possessive regimes, confused or overloaded syntax, typographical excesses, etc.
- The structure, the technique, the how and the who (Ordo). There the point of view, the construction of the characters and their evolution, the anachronisms, the verisimilitude, the naturalness, the visibility, the continuity, the persuasion, etc. will be reviewed.
- The content, the argument, the idea, the what (Res). The intervention includes anticipation, expectations, conflict and implicit questions, rhythm, mastery of narrative modes, story axes, nuclei and causality, springs and the dramatic curve, etc.
WHAT IS THE UTILITY OF THIS SERVICE?
This service is especially aimed at those authors who have not yet passed the filter of any publisher and with this supervision have a better chance of having the work published.
To do this, changes and improvements will be suggested and the errors detected in each of the spaces mentioned will be analysed. Author will be presented with enough marks and tools to make it easy for him to examine it and to assess the reason for each intervention with the arguments provided.
