About this Gig
Is your manuscript complete and do you now want to make sure the story is well-written with a clear plot and well-rounded characters?
As a Writer and Editor, I understand the importance of having your work read and analyzed with the fresh eyes of a reader and professional.
That is where I come in.
Developmental Editing allows the writer to gain an enormous amount of constructive feedback on their creative work, so they can make revisions that fit best for the story and publishing market before final edits.
Developmental Editing is an in-depth look into the novel, focusing on sound plot, pacing and flow, structure, technique, and character development.
What you can expect from my developmental edit:
- Full editorial letter of my chapter-by-chapter critique.
- Specific details and examples of areas needing further development.
- Insight, advice, and resources to help aid the revision process.
- Marginal comments, questions, and feedback throughout each page to help navigate your thoughts, ideas, and understanding as you move forward with revision.
