About this Gig
A full developmental edit is the first step toward publication. You'll get detailed editorial feedback on the big picture elements, such as story structure, pacing, character development, etc. I will identify both strengths and areas to improve in an encouraging and actionable way to give you the tools you need to get your story to the next level. You will get in line comments on your text and an editorial letter that will explore all elements with suggestions, tools, and a step-by-step plan on how to approach your revisions.
The basic package offers a developmental evaluation, which is a preliminary form of developmental edit. It won't go as in depth as a full edit and will focus on a few areas that require the most care. You'll only receive an editorial letter. This is a great tool if you're struggling to self-edit and don't think your story is ready for a full edit at full price.
I'm well versed in romance and fantasy, but I'll happily look at most fiction genres. I don't currently accept nonfiction manuscripts. Don't hesitate to contact me before ordering to discuss your project and needs. I can also provide a rate more tailored to your word count than the packages.

FAQ
What file format can you use?
Word is the industry standard for editing. However, for a developmental edit or evaluation, I can also make it work with a pdf or open office document.
Do you accept manuscripts written with generative AI?
No. Generative AI poses a lot of copyright issues in the arts. I don't use it to evaluate your manuscript either.
My word count is significantly shorter than the packages. Do I have to pay full price?
I can make a custom offer if your work is significantly shorter or longer than the word count offered in the packages. I have no intention to make you pay the full price intended for a manuscript around 40000 words if your manuscript is only 20000 words, for example. Feel free to contact me.
