Continuity check

A second reading takes in the whole book and hunts what drifts along the way.

Some defects only exist between chapters: a first name that changes by chapter three, an age that moves, a promise made in the introduction and never kept. A chapter by chapter review cannot see them, by construction. The continuity check reads the map of the whole book, then goes back over each part to fix what it found.

How it goes

1

Tick the option at launch

The in-depth check is chosen when ordering the book. Its surcharge shows up immediately in the estimate, before anything is charged.

2

The whole-book reading

The entire book is read in one piece, hunting for what contradicts itself from one chapter to the next: characters, figures, promises, through line.

3

The correction pass

What the whole-book reading flagged is fixed part by part, without touching what already held. The delivered book is coherent from first page to last.

What this feature does

What a local review cannot see

Continuity defects live between chapters, never inside one. It takes a reading that spans the whole work to catch them, and that is exactly what this option does.

A surcharge announced, never a surprise

The in-depth check costs 45% of the writing price, with a 2 credit minimum, and that amount is displayed before launch.

The standard review stays included

Every book is already reviewed part by part, option or not. The continuity check adds the whole-book reading, the one that sees the book as one piece.

The right reflex for long books

The longer the book, the more room contradictions have to creep in. On large volumes, this option is the missing safety net.

Three situations where it helps

Hold a character across a whole book

Louise writes a collection of bedtime stories with a recurring heroine. The check catches a first name spelled differently in chapter five and an age that had drifted: her readers will never see the seam.

Secure a long method book

Karim orders a forty thousand word reference book. At that length he ticks the check without hesitating: long books are where contradictions creep in most readily.

Keep the introduction's promise

Sabrina promises a ready-to-fill pricing grid in her opening. The whole-book reading verifies that the promised grid actually exists in the chapter where the introduction announced it.

Who it helps

The children's author whose heroine runs through the whole collection. The trainer delivering a long method who cannot afford to contradict himself. The author who promises a lot up front and intends to keep all of it. The perfectionist who wants a book that reads in one sitting, without a snag.

Common questions

What exactly does this check catch?

What contradicts itself from one chapter to the next: a name or an age that changes, a figure that moves, an opening promise never kept, a through line that gets lost.

How much does it cost?

45% of the writing price, with a 2 credit minimum. The exact amount shows in the estimate before launch, nothing is charged by surprise.

Is the standard review not enough?

It fixes each part, and it is included with every book. But a continuity defect exists in no single part taken alone: it takes the whole-book reading to see it.

When should I take it?

Whenever the book is long, a character returns chapter after chapter, or the introduction makes precise promises. On a short and simple text, the included review is often enough.
