About this Gig

You just finished your first draft of your novel. Congratulations! It's a huge milestone, believe me, I know!


But now, you're faced with the daunting task of revision.


Right now, your manuscript is that nice blouse you pulled out of the dryer three days ago and accidentally left in the hamper. It's wrinkly in all the wrong places, and you'd be mortified to wear it in public.


Does this sound like you? If so, stay with me, here.


I'll help you iron out that wrinkly blouse. Send me your manuscript, and I will read through it in its entirety (whatever that may look like), and give you notes on things like:


-pacing

-voice

-themes

-plot

-character arcs


Need me to make suggestions for bettering your work? No problem!


Need someone a little more laid back, who will just point out the things that need improving but not tell you how to do your job? I got your back there, too.


Now, let's turn that glorious dumpster fire of a first draft into something truly beautiful (and, ideally, less on fire).


Shall we begin?

    Natalie has a good head for the editing process, helping the neophyte like myself with all aspects of the craft.
