I will provide thoughtful developmental editing for your nonfiction writing
About this Gig
Shape your writing.
You feel like your writing has all the right ingredients, but something just isn't clicking.
Maybe the argument needs clarifying. Maybe an idea needs more room to breathe. Or maybe you've stared at the same paragraph so long you can no longer tell whether it belongs here or three pages later.
That's where I come in.
I provide thoughtful developmental editing for nonfiction and idea-driven writing. We'll step back, look at the bigger picture, and figure out what's working and what needs to move.
I can help with:
- Structure and organization
- Idea development and argument
- Clarity and flow
- Audience and reader experience
- Focus, consistency, gaps, and repitition
- Voice and overall effectiveness
I won't redline your writing to oblivion. I'll offer thoughtful feedback while keeping your voice and vision intact.
I work with articles, essays, guides, educational and knowledge-based writing, book sections and manuscripts, workbooks, and other substantial nonfiction projects.
Your ideas, expertise, and voice stay at the center at the work.

FAQ
What types of writing do you edit?
I specialize in nonfiction and idea-driven writing, including articles, essays, guides, educational and knowledge-based writing, book sections and manuscripts, workbooks, and other substantial nonfiction projects.
What is developmental editing?
Developmental editing looks at the bigger picture of a piece of writing, including structure, organization, ideas, clarity, flow, audience, gaps, repetition, and overall effectiveness. It goes beyond proofreading or correcting grammar.
Do you rewrite my work for me?
No. My role is to help you understand what your writing needs and provide thoughtful, specific feedback and recommendations while preserving your voice and vision.
Can you edit a project larger than the package word count?
Yes. Larger or more complex projects can be accommodated through a custom quote. Please contact me before ordering so we can discuss the project and determine the appropriate scope.
What should I send you before ordering?
Please provide your current draft or working material, along with any helpful context about the project, intended audience, goals, and areas where you'd especially like feedback. The more context I have, the more useful my editorial feedback can be.
Are there topics you don't work on?
Yes. I reserve the right to decline projects based on subject matter. I do not accept projects involving political advocacy, partisan political content, occult or magical practices, or other topics outside my professional scope. If unsure, please contact me before ordering.
