I will do developmental editing and proofreading for your book, novel, or manuscript

My developmental editing focuses on story structure, plot, pacing, chapter order, character development, clarity, and narrative flow (or structure and argument for nonfiction). Proofreading covers grammar, spelling, punctuation, and consistency so your manuscript is clean and publication-ready.

I work on fiction and nonfiction manuscripts, including novels, memoirs, short stories, novellas, and book chapters. This service supports agent submissions, publisher submissions, self-publishing, and Amazon KDP manuscripts.

Yes. You’ll receive tracked changes (where appropriate), in-text comments, and developmental notes that explain what to revise and why. I also provide actionable recommendations to improve structure, pacing, and readability.

Yes. I can edit and proofread your manuscript in US English or UK English spelling and conventions. Just tell me your preference before I start, and I’ll keep it consistent throughout the book.

Choose the package based on your word count and how much developmental editing you need. If you want help with plot/structure and pacing, developmental editing is best. If your manuscript is already structurally solid and needs a final polish, proofreading is ideal. Send a sample page & your goals.
