Think You’re Ready to Publish? Think Again.

We all know the disappointment of finding a great story that’s bogged down by cluttered, unimaginative, or impenetrable writing.

But what’s even worse is when that story is yours.

Trying to avoid rejection, the savagery of critics, or a barrage of 1-star backlash from disappointed readers can lead even the most experienced author down a road of self-doubt and confusion.

Because it’s when you think your manuscript is finished that things really get scary.

But getting your book into top-class shape doesn’t have to be a confusing process.  With the Book Editing Breakthrough Challenge, we’ll take you by the hand through 8 days of intensive editing action that leads you out of analysis paralysis and onto new shores where editing is simple, worthwhile, and dare we say it… fun!

You’ll develop a complete understanding of the core elements that can drag your writing down – and exactly how to tackle them during line editing.

Your initial goal is to have 50 pages of your manuscript edited and tightened to a publishable standard by the end of the challenge period – but we won’t stop you if you want to push harder.

This is your challenge. Rock it!

Structured for Success – During and After 

Following a tightly-knit 8-day programme, you’ll be treated to daily emails and video lessons focused on motivation and the core concepts behind the most impactful line edits that make your manuscript shine.

We’ll even send you a downloadable resource pack filled with checklists, reference sheets and editing guides to keep you company throughout the challenge and beyond.

On top of that, you’ll receive access to our private, challenger-only Facebook group, where you can share tips, discuss your progress, and get help and accountability from peers and the AutoCrit team.

Every challenge entry ticket also includes 14 days of unlimited access to the AutoCrit Pro editing suite – so you can put what you’ve learned into action and rocket your way through page after page of crisper, cleaner writing.

EXCLUSIVE Challenger Live Streams, Plus Prizes!

Let’s not forget the live component. We do want this to be challenging AND fun, after all!

As part of the Book Editing Breakthrough Challenge, we’ll host a one-of-a-kind stream featuring a live edit of a challenger’s manuscript. Discover how to think like an editor and gain a whole new perspective on whether your novel is ready to take on the world.

Who knows… if you’re happy to share, we might just pick your manuscript to go under the knife!

And don’t miss our closing gala celebration, where a live draw will see every challenger placed in the running to win some fabulous prizes, including:

• AutoCrit memberships
• Gift cards
• Lifetime access to AutoCrit’s training vault
• Additional, super-secret swag!

With a single prize, you could win back the value (and more!) of your entry ticket.

That’s our way of rewarding you for your commitment to the challenge, and to your book.

IMPORTANT: Please note that all lessons and live streams are delivered inside the private Facebook group. You will need to have access to a Facebook account to take part in these.

Maximize Your Potential with the VIP Experience

Ready to go “all in” on the future of your book? Take the VIP route and we’ll treat you to our “silver service” challenge setup plus additional support.

The AutoCrit team will personally take your manuscript, upload it into the AutoCrit Pro editing platform, tidy up any formatting issues, and make sure you’re 100% ready to hit the ground running.

We’ll even fill in additional settings for you such as character names, words you’ve created (think place names, spell names, or names of future technology) that you’d like to hide from your editing reports, and any words you want to look out for in particular.

Think you tend to overuse the word “secret” in your writing, but you’re just not sure if it’s that much of a problem? We’ll set it up so you can see right away if your concern is warranted.

And then we’ll even send you your very own personal video walkthrough, explaining how the AutoCrit platform works and how you can make fast and efficient progress throughout the challenge.

VIP challengers also receive EXCLUSIVE access to live VIP office hours. Get extra-special care and guidance and have your questions answered in live chats with your hosts.

Note: To make sure our live VIP sessions aren’t too cluttered, spaces on the VIP list are strictly limited. VIP registration closes early on August 21st – so don’t miss the deadline!
