Wit & Travesty

Manuscript Editing Contest—UPDATE

UPDATES

manuscript editing contest

Hey, Leute!

As you can expect with our first contest, we’re going to clarify some things so that you can properly participate in our manuscript editing contest and feel like it’s more fair.

I realized that not every uses the same social media platforms that we do, so rather than getting an account to apply for something you don’t use (we’re cool, but probably not that cool), we’ve altered the rules so there’s more leeway on how you can participate.

The original post is already updated, but the only required item is to comment on the original post to introduce you, introduce your WIP, and formally enter the contest. The rules state that you need to do 2+ of the items listed to be considered to win. That should hopefully make it more accessible. You can view the original post here.

If you have any questions or suggestions, let us know! Otherwise, you have until JUNE 26th to enter!

  • WRITER'S LIFE ADVICE
Jessica Frazier
Whitney McGruder has created a vast and imaginative world in Destiny Seeker with surprises to delight the reader at every turn. Readers can settle in to devour the diverse and ingenious magic Destiny Seeker has to offer. I highly recommend it.
Jessica Thompson
Whitney was great to work with. The whole experience was professional, yet flexible. Helpful, yet kind. My manuscript improved so much through Whitney's guidance that I received my first book deal!
Tori Nix
Working with Whitney was a breath of fresh air! I enjoyed every minute of my experience with bringing my book to life! Whitney not only did an exceptional job, she is also a very kind, patient, and I hope to continue to do business in the future!
Jonathan Baker
Whitney and I worked together in a writing feedback group some years ago and have remained in touch since then. From the beginning, I was struck by her absolute responsibility as an editor. Even in the capacity of a group member, not even being employed or contracted by me to edit my work, Whitney was unerringly punctual, thorough, and accurate with her feedback. Her advice is genuinely insightful and I believe the marketability of my work was noticeably increased due to her guidance. I so value her skills that I still turn to her as a resource after three years of working with her in-person have passed.
Rachel Barnard
I won a contest via Wit & Travesty in the summer of 2017. The prize was a professional edit of the first 100 pages of a WIP. My middle grade fantasy was only 90 pages, so she read the entire manuscript. She was communicative and positive about the project. Her edits markedly polished up my manuscript and were easy to understand.
Brittany Olsen
Whitney helped me with two short projects written for children, and she was very pleasant to work with. She has an eye for detail, helping me with small grammar errors as well as insights about adding scenes that would enhance my story. Her turnaround time was extremely quick, which I really appreciated when on a deadline!
Angelika Offenwanger
Whitney did a copy-edit on my third novel, Checkmate. She was a pleasure to work with, and helped me give my novel that final polish that it needed before publication. Put her on your list for editors that help your work shine!
