About this Gig
Your manuscript is written but the structure feels off, the pacing drags, or your characters fall flat. You need a developmental book editor.
As a professional developmental book editor, I go beyond grammar and spelling to fix what's really holding your story back plot holes, weak character arcs, poor pacing, and unclear narrative flow. Fiction or nonfiction, I help you build a manuscript readers can't put down.
What you get:
- Full developmental edit with detailed editorial letter
- Chapter-by-chapter feedback on structure & pacing
- Plot hole identification and character arc analysis
- Clarity and organization review (nonfiction)
- Actionable revision guidance not just criticism
Why work with me?
I treat every manuscript as a collaboration. My goal isn't to rewrite your voice it's to help you say what you mean, more powerfully. I've worked across genres including thriller, literary fiction, memoir, and self-help.
Your story deserves to be told at its best. Let's get it there.
Message me before ordering I offer a free sample edit on your first 500 words so you know we're the right fit.
Delivery style preference
Please inform the freelancer of any preferences or concerns regarding the use of AI tools in the completion and/or delivery of your order.

FAQ
What is developmental editing and how is it different from proofreading?
Developmental editing focuses on big-picture issues — structure, pacing, plot, and character arcs. Proofreading fixes grammar and spelling. I work on what's beneath the surface, making your story stronger before the fine-tuning begins.
Do you work with both fiction and nonfiction manuscripts?
Yes! I edit fiction (thrillers, literary fiction, romance, fantasy) and nonfiction (memoir, self-help, business books). Each gets a tailored approach, story arc for fiction, clarity and logic flow for nonfiction.
How long does a developmental edit take?
Turnaround depends on manuscript length and package selected. Most projects are delivered within 5–10 days. For urgent timelines, message me before ordering and I'll let you know my availability.
Will you rewrite my manuscript or change my voice?
Never. My job is to strengthen your story, not replace your voice. You'll receive clear, actionable feedback and an editorial letter — the rewriting is always yours to do, guided by my notes.
Can I send a sample before placing an order?
Absolutely. I offer a free sample edit on your first 500 words so we can ensure we're a good fit before you commit. Just send me a message and we'll get started.
