The McKernan Literary Agency & Consultancy Edinburgh
The Writing Room
In 2009 Maggie McKernan launched a new online literary consultancy proving editorial services directly to writers, including detailed writer-oriented manuscript appraisal and individual mentoring programmes.
Now we're delighted to be launching a new, completely redesigned, easily negotiated new Writing Room website. We hope this new site makes it even easier for writers to take advantage of the services that we offer.
We're now offering three different kinds of typescript appraisal -
A full intensive editorial report covering all aspects of the work
A shorter report offering a market analysis of the work only
A shorter report offering an editorial analysis only
We also offer advice on approaching publishers, synopsis/proposal analysis, and a full editorial service offering copy-editing and structural editing.
This service is suitable for published and unpublished writers. It aims to give all writers access to the very best editorial skills available, as well as the most market-aware advice.
