Brief overview of our Process.
-
The process begins with reading and analyzing your script. An outline is then created for adapting your script to a manuscript.
-
The outline is a key factor in the adaptation of your script to a manuscript. It serves as the blueprint for writing your manuscript.
-
Your manuscript based on the outline will incorporate the storyline of your script, add story points to enhance its readability as a book, along with identifying the number of pages and chapters the book will have.
* We cannot proceed with the writing of your manuscript until you have reviewed, discussed, and given your approval of this outline to proceed. Your outline is estimated to be completed mid to late next week.

Once the outline is approved. The writing of Chapter 1 will begin. Upon its’ completion, it will be sent to you for your review and discussion with Susan regarding your comments, changes (if needed) and questions.
* I will keep you posted on when to expect chapter 1.
5.When you approve chapter 1: The next step is to send you several chapters at a time to review and comment on. This is to ensure you agree with how the storyline is written.
6.Chapters from there are generated on a constant basis, until the book is done.
