Book Formatting and Editing Expert
About this Gig
Your romantasy manuscript deserves more than a proofread.
I'm a developmental editor specialising in romantasy and fantasy romance, the books where enemies-to-lovers tension must burn slow, magic systems need to make sense, and the HEA (or HFN) has to feel earned.
What I'll fix for you:
- Plot holes & pacing issues (saggy middles, rushed endings)
- Character arcs that fall flat or contradict
- Romantic tension & slow-burn beat timing
- World-building consistency & magic system logic
- Scene-by-scene story structure breakdown
Who this is for:
Self-publishing authors, indie writers, NaNoWriMo drafts, or anyone querying agents in the romantasy/fantasy romance space.
You'll receive:
A detailed editorial letter + inline manuscript comments covering big-picture story issues not line edits.
Genres I know deeply: romantasy, dark fantasy romance, fae, dragon shifters, court intrigue, cozy fantasy romance.
Ready to make your manuscript unputdownable? Order now or message me first I read every brief personally.

FAQ
What's the difference between developmental editing and proofreading?
Delopmental editing looks at the big picture — your story structure, character arcs, pacing, and world-building. Proofreading fixes grammar and spelling. I work on the story before you polish the prose.
Do you work on first drafts?
Yes! First drafts are actually ideal for developmental editing. We focus on the story bones before you invest time in line-level rewriting.
My book is 130,000 words — can you still help?
Absolutely. Message me with your word count for a custom quote before ordering.
Will you tell me if my book isn't working?
Yes — honestly, but constructively. My goal is to help you fix what isn't working, not just validate what is.
Do you offer a sample edit?
Yes. Send the first 1,000 words and I'll give you a brief taste of my feedback style before you commit.
