I will provide a professional developmental edit and structural critique for your book
About this Gig
Is your story lacking narrative drive or dragging in the middle? You need a developmental editor.
Developmental editing examines the skeleton of your booknot commas. I analyze narrative architecture, character development, world-building, and thematic consistency so your story grips readers from page one to the climax.
What you get:
- Structural integrity (pacing, inciting incident, rising action, climax)
- Character arc analysis (motivations, growth, antagonist depth)
- Scene-by-scene breakdown (what stalls vs. what drives the story)
- Detailed 3+ page editorial letter with strengths, weaknesses, and actionable revision steps
Practical advice aligned with commercial and indie standards, plus a clear roadmapnot just criticism.
Transform your draft into a compelling page-turner. Order today.

FAQ
What is the difference between developmental editing and proofreading?
Developmental editing is "big-picture" editing. We focus on structure, plot, pacing, and character logic. Proofreading is "surface-level" editing (grammar and spelling).
Do you rewrite parts of my book for me?
No. To ensure you maintain full creative control and your unique authorial voice, I do not rewrite your prose. Instead, I provide an extensive Editorial Letter and structural recommendations so you can execute the revisions.
What genres do you accept for developmental editing?
I specialize in Fiction and Narrative Non-Fiction. If you have a niche genre, feel free to message me!
My novel is 90,000+ words. Can I order a custom package?
Absolutely! Most full-length novels require a custom quote based on word count and the level of a deep-dive required. Please message me with your word count and a brief synopsis for a personalized offer.
