FAQ
What is developmental editing?
Developmental editing focuses on the big picture of your manuscript — structure, plot, pacing, character arcs, emotional depth, and overall flow. It strengthens the foundation of your book before line editing or proofreading.
What genres do you specialize in?
I specialize in developmental editing for paranormal romance, dark romance, comedy, contemporary romance, hockey romance, and self-help books. My feedback is tailored to the expectations and reader demands of each genre.
How is developmental editing different from proofreading?
Proofreading corrects grammar, spelling, and punctuation. Developmental editing analyzes story structure, character development, pacing, conflict, and reader engagement. It improves the manuscript at a structural and strategic level.
Will you rewrite my manuscript?
No. I provide detailed feedback, inline comments, and an editorial report with actionable suggestions. The revisions remain in your creative control, preserving your voice and vision.
Can you edit unfinished manuscripts?
Yes, I can review partial manuscripts or early drafts. Developmental editing at an early stage can save time and prevent structural issues later.
How do I know which package to choose?
Send me your word count and genre before placing an order. I will guide you to the package that best fits your manuscript and editing needs.
Is my manuscript kept confidential?
Absolutely. All manuscripts are handled with complete professionalism and confidentiality.
What will I receive after the edit?
A detailed developmental editorial report. Chapter-by-chapter feedback. Inline comments within your manuscript. Clear, strategic revision recommendations.
