I will be your professional editor for a science fiction or fantasy novel
Experienced, Intuitive, Affordable Editing Services
About this Gig
> > Contact me for scheduling < <
I have seen a lot of content! So why am I here? Although I have a pro site, I enjoy encountering new people and works here on Fiverr. So let my experience from Hollywood studios to the biggest names in gaming work for you.
If you want a real, professional line or developmental edit, this is your gig. (My developmental edits are especially legendary.) If you are looking for cheap editing, look elsewhere! (You get what you pay for, especially with editing.)
I specialize in science fiction and fantasy, offering genre insights on mechanics, characters, world building, and cliché. (I accept other genres as well. Just fill me in.)

I prefer to set up custom orders after I understand your editing needs.
To help determine where you manuscript is at, check out the FAQ below.
I am looking for real author/editor relationships. Message me and let's talk. I will probably ask you to send me the first 5K words of your material and offer you some feedback to see if we are a fit. If we agree to move forward, I will make a custom gig for the entire piece tailored to you.
I look forward to your words and worlds!

FAQ
What kinds of questions should I have answers to regarding my manuscript?
Are you satisfied with the development of your world and characters? Are you confident in your communication of the plot? Are you unsure about literary structural issues? Have you had test readers? Is your manuscript reasonably proofed (for line edits)?
What is a developmental edit? What does it cover?
A developmental edit stands back, looking at the bigger pictures your story paints, like story, arcs and continuity, comprehension, plot holes, cliché, character development, pacing issues, etc. This, my specialty edit, usually manifests in numerous sidebar notes on the above issues and more!
What is a line edit? What does it cover?
A line edit is for manuscripts with refined stories and pacing. It's a labor intensive, granular look at structure, word usage, clarity, repetition, dialogue issues, point-of-view, etc. Some of these issues I fix, some require the author's hand. It's not a "proofread," and ignores dev edit content.

It is not actually edited that much, at all. Semantic overlap is 95%, which is fine, but without paragraph breakup and so on, it seems like a hatchet job more than an actual editing arrangement. Feedback on arc is misinformed due to not taking heed of prior communications regarding the story line, and...

I’ve worked with B.F. for a couple of years now. He knows the universe I’m creating reasonably well, but that isn’t why I keep coming back. I work with B.F. because he knows what it takes to tell a story. He understands when a turn of a phrase is good, when it’s misleading, when it’s not clear. He understands...

It was a great experience working with BF. He understood the unique expectations I had for this project and even delivered earlier than promised.

BF has been with me on this project for nearly two years. His institutional memory is invaluable but of course so his his knowledge and insight. I wanted a real assessment of the progress I made, and I got it. I can't recomment BF more hightly if you really, truly, want to perfect the craft.
