About this Gig

Hi, I'm Dyuti! I'm a professional editor and journalist with 10+ years of industry experience, writing for WIRED, Business Insider, Apartment Therapy, and elsewhere. Please see my FAQ for my YES and NO Genres. Please DM me with your Genre & Synopsis/Proposal for queries and custom requests.


First of all, give yourself a pat on the back because you've written a novel. You've spent hours and months with your characters; you've lived in their world and no one knows them better than you. If you are preparing to query agents or self-publish, this is where I come in: someone who can look at your draft with a fine-toothed comb. 


I will beta-read and critique your full manuscript and/or query package as per your chosen service, which will include:


  • 5-page Editorial Assessment Report of your manuscript on: plot, characterization, world-building, dialogues, POV, conflict & resolution, voice, pacing, continuity errors, and more.


  • Line-editing & Feedback of Query Package (query letter, synopsis, first 50 pages of MS) for grammar, intrigue, hook, voice, and more, using track-changes.


Let's make your story shine. I'm excited for us to create magic!
