FAQ
What genres of fiction do you edit?
I can work with most fiction genres, including romance, fantasy, thriller, mystery, horror, science fiction, literary fiction, historical fiction, young adult, and contemporary fiction. Message me first if you’re unsure whether your project is a fit.
What is the difference between developmental, line, and copy editing?
Developmental editing focuses on the story as a whole—plot, pacing, structure, characters, and story logic. Line editing improves style, clarity, flow, dialogue, and word choice. Copy editing focuses on grammar, spelling, punctuation, syntax, and consistency.
Can you combine all three types of editing?
Yes. Depending on your package and manuscript needs, I can combine developmental, line, and copy editing to give your fiction novel a more comprehensive editorial review.
Will you change my writing style or voice?
No. My goal is to strengthen your writing while preserving your individual voice. Suggestions are made to improve clarity, flow, and impact—not to make your manuscript sound like someone else
Do you edit the entire novel?
Yes. I can edit full-length fiction manuscripts. Please provide your word count and manuscript details before ordering so I can recommend the appropriate package.
Will I receive an edited Word document?
Yes. I can provide an edited manuscript with changes and/or comments so you can review the suggested revisions and understand the reasoning behind them
Do you provide feedback on plot and characters?
Yes. Where developmental editing is included, I can identify issues involving plot structure, pacing, character development, consistency, story logic, and reader engagement.
Can I contact you before placing an order?
Absolutely. Send me your genre, word count, manuscript stage, and the type of editing you need, and I’ll help you determine the best option.
