A mini-edit of the first 10,000 words of your novel is a great way to check that you are on the right track, and Lesley Jones of Perfect the Word is offering just that in the form of a two-pass line edit – which means you get your revisions edited once you’ve seen the result of the first pass.
This prize is worth at least £250 and includes a detailed editorial letter.
