What Is a Novel Editing Service?
Novel editing is a structured, professional process that improves the clarity, structure, language, pacing, and consistency of a fiction manuscript while preserving the author’s creative intent.
Unlike basic proofreading, novel editing evaluates how your story works as a whole from plot logic and character development to scene flow and sentence-level precision.
At FCS, editing is never automated, outsourced blindly, or rushed. Every novel is treated as a serious publishing project.
