About this Gig
Vetted Pro
- You must message me before ordering. I am currently focusing on the needs of long-term clients and limiting the number of new clients I accept.
I'm an author with many books, including some bestsellers! As your developmental editor, I will be looking for some of the following:
Pacing: Does your story throw your protagonist into conflict quickly enough? Too quickly, or without enough explanation?
Characters: Are your characters interesting enough? Are they believable?
Tension: Is there enough excitement and motivation present to keep the reader engaged, without feeling overwhelmed or confused?
Story: Does the overall story make sense? Does it fit your target audience?
Execution: Does the opening chapter sell the book? Does the fight scene make the reader squeeze the book in anticipation? Will the supporting character's death scene bring the reader to tears?
Consistency: Did you state your protagonist was a vegan in chapter one, only to have him bite into a juicy steak with his crew in chapter eight with no explanation?
Have a look at the sample edit above!
Confidentiality Statement:
I will never share the contents of your work without your express permission.
Delivery style preference
Please inform the freelancer of any preferences or concerns regarding the use of AI tools in the completion and/or delivery of your order.

FAQ
Do you have a content policy?
I accept almost anything when it comes to fiction, but there are exceptions. Things like extreme gore/torture, romanticizing pedophilia, overt modern political propaganda, etc. It is your responsibility to disclose content before ordering. Orders that violate this policy will be canceled.
What is your revision policy?
Revisions on my orders are very rare. However, I do offer one for free. For the second revision and beyond, you will be charged a fee for each, with the amount depending on the size of your order and the extent of the revision.
Do you work with larger manuscripts? If so, what is the rate for them?
Most of my projects are full-length novels. To keep things simple, the price listed is the rate per 1,000 words. For example, if your manuscript is 101,450 words long, just multiply the rate by 102 to get your estimated total.
Can I see a sample of your work?
Absolutely! You'll find one attached to this gig page. Just scroll back up to the top, and click over to the third image. You'll see a gray button on the upper right that says "View Presentation". Click that, and the sample should appear!
Which genres do you edit?
Pretty much any and all fiction! Don't be fooled by the genres listed under the gig description. Fiverr will only allow me to choose three. I'm just as happy to edit your Romance, Children's book, etc.
Do you also do developmental editing for non-fiction?
Possibly. Feel free to message me.
Will you edit my memoir?
I do not accept memoirs.
Will you fix my grammar, spelling, sentence structure, phrasing, etc?
Sorry, this would be the wrong gig for that. Have a look at my line editing or copy editing / proofreading gig!
Will you sign my NDA?
I will not, for several reasons: Your book is likely already protected. I have a statement of confidentiality in my gig that covers sharing information. I would have to consult my lawyer, and his rates are unfortunately higher than mine. They simply aren't standard, and there's no need for them.
Do you use AI or other writing tools?
I do not use AI for any of my feedback gigs. You are paying for my professional advice, and that's what you'll receive.
