FAQ
What is developmental editing?
Developmental editing focuses on the big picture of your story. I look at plot, pacing, character arcs, tension, and overall structure to ensure your story is compelling and flows smoothly. It’s about strengthening your manuscript before fine-tuning language or grammar.
Do you maintain my voice and style?
Absolutely! Your voice is your story’s heartbeat. My job is to enhance clarity, tension, and impact without changing your unique style or tone.
What genres do you edit?
I specialize in horror romance, gothic, YA romance, and cozy mystery, but I’m happy to work with other genres as well.
How long will the editing process take?
The timeline depends on your manuscript’s length and complexity. After reviewing your work, I’ll provide a clear schedule and keep you updated throughout the process.
Do you handle adult content?
Yes! I’m comfortable working with dark themes, suspense, violence, or explicit romance.
Can you provide sample edits before I commit?
Yes! If you want to ensure we’re a good fit, I can provide a sample developmental edit of your opening chapters.
