Your manuscript needs to be in the best possible shape it can be to have any chance of being accepted by an agent or a publisher in this highly competitive field. Especially works of fiction! You, the writer, need to give yourself every advantage to land that publishing deal, and not end up on the dreaded 'slush pile'.

Having your manuscript read and assessed by a professional appraisal service is a major step toward producing that polished and saleable product.

And writing is a product, a commodity. All publishers - whether it be books, magazines or newspapers - are in the business of making money. If they make money you, the writer, makes money. As much as we writers write for the love of creativity, publishers publish to make money. That's the bottom line. You need to produce a polished, professional and saleable piece of writing so that you and the publisher can have a financially beneficial relationship.
