About this Gig
"Do I even need a dialogue doctor?"
The Doctor sat behind his desk, lowered his pen and stared at the author. "That depends," he said, smiling. "Do you write fiction?"
"I do."
"You enjoy creating plots?"
"Sure."
"Using description? Creating settings?"
"Of course."
"How about characters? You want characters your readers will love and cherish, long after they finish your story?"
"Don't we all?"
The Doctor laughed. "You'd think so, wouldn't you?" he asked. "Yet most writers struggle with dialogue clunky sentences, confusing tags, poor punctuation and, worst of all..." He paused, shaking his head. "Info-dumping through endless monologues."
"No!"
"It's true. I've seen it all in my line of work. Nothing says 'wannabe writer' like bland, improperly punctuated dialogue. More importantly, I've corrected potentially fatal mistakes just like these. And I'd love to fix yours before it's too late."
"I'm impressed. So...what now?"
The Doctor grinned. "Scroll down, order a gig and let's start making your story the best it can be. I'm looking forward to working with you!"
FREE BONUS! Starting today, this gig includes a FREE copy of my eBook, "7 Deadly Sins of Editing".

FAQ
"So, why should I trust you with my work?"
Well, for starters, I'm a genuine, English-speaking American. Grew up in Tulsa, Oklahoma, no less! I also possess a degree in English Education and I've been teaching Creative Writing for over 9 years. As much as I enjoy reading and writing, I REALLY love editing!
“So, what genres do you edit? What about—"
"Everything," the Doctor said, waving his hand. "Romance, Young Adult, Fantasy, Westerns, Children's books, Science Fiction, Action and Adventure, Thrillers, Short Stories, Literature..."
"Manuscript formats?"
"Microsoft Word, Apple Pages, Google Docs, Text files. Heck, I'll even edit your PDFs. But for the sake of Tracking Changes, I highly suggest Word, Pages or Docs."
Do you use AI to edit?
While I use AI to edit my own writing and short stories, I do not use any AI when I edit my client's writing. As great as AI is at doing basic edits and formatting, it can't replicate my own unique editing style and preferences, so I'll always be polishing your project organically.

Best editor I have ever worked with. He transformed my manuscript. Finished 5 days before an already aggressive deadline. Pleasure to work with. Offered services far behind what I had expected.

Jack did a great job of enhancing the dialogue in my novel. But he went beyond that and even made improvements in my narrative. I was very impressed with his work, and I will use him again in my next novel. He is also very good about communication and kept me informed of his progress.
