Start by sending us up to 10 pages of your novel, short story, comic, or poetry manuscript—whether it’s a work-in-progress or a polished excerpt. We’ll review your writing style and story to offer specific, actionable feedback based on trends in the submitted writing sample.

Once we’ve reviewed your sample, you’ll receive a detailed evaluation highlighting your manuscript’s strengths and areas for improvement. Our feedback focuses on big-picture elements—like plot, pacing, character development, and writing style—before line editing or copyediting, in alignment with our research-backed best practices for effective revision.

Every evaluation is designed to be clear, actionable, and supportive—empowering you to refine your manuscript and strengthen your story. We base our suggestions on patterns we observe in your writing sample, giving you insights you can apply both to this project and your craft as a whole.

With our feedback in hand, you’ll take the lead in refining your manuscript. Though the revision work is in your hands, we'll continue to offer flexible support based on your needs. If our services impress, you can opt for additional 10-page evaluations, full editing services, and more—designed to meet your needs at each stage of your revision process.

Once your manuscript is polished, you’ll be empowered to move forward with your publishing journey. Whether you choose to self-publish independently, query agents, or explore marketing and publishing services with us at Feathered Messengers Press, we’ll provide the resources and support you need to pursue the path that best aligns with your goals.
