Edit WWI Alternate History Novel
Budget: $30 – $250 USD
I have a completed alternate-history manuscript set during World War One that now needs a professional sweep. The draft already reads smoothly, yet I can feel gaps in plot logic and scene flow, so your primary mission is to tighten plot consistency and perform detailed line editing. Please preserve the casual, descriptive tone that gives the story its immediacy while making sure the language stays vivid and engaging.
Certain real-world dates and events—key battles, political shifts, and treaty timelines—must remain accurate. Where my storyline deviates for dramatic effect, the divergence should feel believable against the historical backdrop. I will supply a short chronology of the non-negotiable facts to guide you.
For efficiency we will work in Word using Track Changes. I’d like clear comments explaining any substantial plot or continuity fixes so I can learn from the edits and keep the series bible coherent.
Deliverables:
• Full manuscript returned with line edits and comments tracked
• A brief edit memo (1-2 pages) summarising plot adjustments, flagged continuity issues, and any historical notes
If you have a sharp editorial eye, enjoy weaving fiction around authentic history, and can balance accuracy with narrative flair, I look forward to collaborating with you.
