About this Gig
This gig is for the author looking to dive into the nuts and bolts of their story to make it as strong as it can be from the inside out. I will think critically about the big-picture elements of your story as listed below and give you the tools to fix the issues I find.
I specialize in these areas:
Story Structure
Character Arcs and the Internal Character Journey
Theme
Conflict/Tension
Worldbuilding
Consistency and Sense-Making (whether the events logically follow)
Chapter and Scene Structure
Deliverable:
I will write down my critiques by chapter as well as give you an editorial letter of the specific strengths and weaknesses in your book. I will also leave in-text comments where appropriate for small-picture feedback.
I provide custom pricing by the word for every client at a rate of $0.01 per word. Check out the sample below for an idea of my developmental editing style. I specialize in these genres but am happy to edit outside of these: romance, fantasy, sci-fi, young adult. If you're looking for an editor who will help you surgically fix your large-scale novel elements, message me for a quote!

Meredith was incredibly helpful with laying out the points of my story that were currently strong, while also inviting me to work on the areas that were weakest. I was aware of a few story beats that needed improvements, but I needed an outside voice to confirm other people could pick up on the inconsistencies...

Another excellent order with Meredith! She did a revision pass on my dark fantasy WIP and did a wonderful job. Her attention to detail, deep knowledge of story structure, and eye for character all make her an amazing editor and storytelling mentor. I look forward to working with her on future projects.

Meredith never fails to deliver above and beyond expectations. She takes great care to understand where a writer is and then meets them at that place. I couldn't accomplish nearly the level of quality without her assistance. Great developmental editor for fiction.
