About this Gig
Vetted Pro
Let me craft your novel into its best and highest form!
As a published author and a prolific reader, I will expertly find any dangling plot threads, flat character arcs, and details that are repetitive or confusing and tell you how to correct them, turning your good book into a great one.
My edit means polishing your phrasing to be engaging and to adhere to your genre standards. I preserve your unique author's voice (no changes just for the sake of making a change). And I do multiple read-throughs to ensure I catch everything.
In addition to a thorough critique of your work (any issues I point out will also come with recommendations on how to fix it), for standard and premium packages, I also go line by line, ensuring your book is as close to perfect as possible when you get it back.
A check of my reviews will show you that my novelist and memoir clients come away happy and ready to take on publishing.
Ready to start? Place your order now! Or, if you have special questions for me, send a message so I can tailor my services to your book.

FAQ
Do you edit all genres?
Not all. I do not edit children's books or non-con erotica. I have successfully edited all other fiction genres.
What if I find a mistake in my manuscript after your editing?
For minor typos, this is to be expected, as neither a developmental edit nor a line edit are designed to serve as a final proofread. However, I offer revisions if I have not implemented your instructions or if you find a large error.
What if I don't agree with your changes?
As the author, this is YOUR book. You have worked hard to create this story and my job is to make it the best it can be. All my changes are visible with MS Word Track Changes (or Google Docs suggestions) and you absolutely can reject those you disagree with (barring grammar/punctuation corrections).

I received the developmental edit from her very quickly. It was a surprisingly fast delivery considering how extensive the work was for an 80K novel. I'm also thinking it's kind of a thankless task to be a developmental editor or at least because they don't get feedback for quite some time and...
