I will help you create a compelling opening for a young adult novel

As a developmental editor, I know that the first chapter of your novel is the most important chapter you will ever write. I also know how difficult it is to find the feedback you need to make your novel stand out in a crowded market. First chapters set the tone for your book and must hook your reader.

As your developmental editor, I can help you:

• Create a captivating first line and chapter
  

•  Engage your readers by building a world they can believe in
  

• Analyse and develop your main character/s so readers will relate to them
  

• Assure that the tone and language you use is distinctive and appropriate for YA fiction
  

• End your first chapter with a bang, convincing teens to keep reading

• Understand if your novel will appeal to agents, publishers, parents and librarians - the people who will be buying your book.
  

NB: Please contact me before ordering so that I can help you choose the best option for your book.
