About this Gig
Do your romance characters feel too weak to carry your story?
That is a sign your manuscript needs developmental editing that truly understands your genre.
I am a professional romance editor who specializes in fiction editing for dark romance and contemporary romance writers. I know exactly what your readers expect morally grey characters, slow-burn tension, emotionally satisfying arcs, and a plot that pulls them in from page one.
Through my developmental editing process, I will go deep into your manuscript and give you honest, detailed feedback on your plot structure, character development, pacing, dialogue, and consistency. Whether you write dark romance or contemporary romance, every story deserves the kind of fiction editing that makes it unputdownable.
As your romance editor, you will receive a clear, actionable editorial letter tailored specifically to your manuscript. My turnaround is based on word count so your story always gets thorough attention.

FAQ
What is the difference between developmental editing and copy editing?
Developmental editing looks at your story as a whole the plot, characters, and structure. Copy editing focuses on sentence level issues like grammar, punctuation, and word choice. I recommend developmental editing first before any copy editing.
Can you edit a manuscript that is not finished yet?
I recommend having a complete first draft before ordering. This ensures you get the most value from the feedback since the full story arc needs to be in place for a proper developmental edit.
What will I receive after the edit?
You will receive a detailed editorial letter with honest, constructive, and actionable feedback covering all the key areas of your manuscript. Premium package buyers also receive in-line comments and one revision round.
Will you rewrite my manuscript for me?
No. Developmental editing is about giving you the feedback and direction you need to improve your own manuscript. The rewriting is done by you so your voice and vision are always preserved.
How many revision rounds are included?
The Basic and Standard packages do not include revision rounds. The Premium package includes one revision round after the initial editorial letter is delivered.
