About this Gig
Vetted Pro
Hi, I'm Stefanie Newell, a Fiverr Pro developmental editor with 17 years of experience and an online audience of over 5.8M+ YouTube views on writing, publishing, and book development.
I've worked with Hollywood producers, Grammy-winning artists, and first-time authors to turn rough drafts into market-ready books.
Developmental editing focuses on structure, pacing, and reader engagement. It does not cover grammar or spelling. As your book editor my goal is to ensure your book works for its genre and audience. I specialize in providing non fiction editing including memoir, self-help, business, and devotionals.
What you'll get:
- Margin comments on what's working + what's not
- Clear chapter-level recommendations
- Action list for your next draft
- Direct answers to "Is my writing good enough?" and "Am I ready to publish?"
Packages:
- 5,000 words - Professional assessment (7 days)
- 10,000 words - Assessment + manuscript markup (7 days)
- 20,000 words - Assessment + manuscript markup (10 days)
If you're looking for an experienced developmental book editor for non fiction, you're in the right place.

FAQ
Will you do rewrites or make changes to my manuscript?
No, my goal as your developmental editor is to provide you with feedback on how you can improve your writing. I will make suggestions on what needs to be improved, however, you will handle rewrites and make structural changes if there are any needed.
What genres do you provide developmental editing for?
Any non-fiction genre. However, I primarily work with memoirs, self-help, business-related, and Christian books.
Will you review my synopsis, outline, book description, etc.?
Additional documentation, such as synopsis, outlines, book descriptions, etc., will only be reviewed if included in the word count. So for example, if your manuscript is 10,000 words and your additional documentation is 5,000 words, your total word count is 15,000 words.
Will you provide developmental editing for books that were written by AI?
No, I do not provide developmental editing for books primarily written by AI within this gig. Please see my other gig.
I really want to work with you, but my book is not one of the genres you've mentioned.
I've chosen these non-fiction genres because they are genres where I can provide the most value. With that being said, there are some fiction genres I will consider providing developmental editing for. Please message me first. Please don't submit your manuscript, without approval.
Will you review my book cover and title?
Please choose my gig extra.
My manuscript is more than 20,000 words, how much would my manuscript be?
Please message me with your exact word count and I will provide a quote.
Can we chat? I have some additional questions about writing, publishing and book marketing.
Add the Gig extra to schedule a Zoom consultation for us to speak specifically about your book.
Do you work with books in all languages?
This service is only offered for books written in English.

The development edit and what was recommended in changes was excellent. Your comments, though plentiful, were done in a fashion which was not invalidative but corrective and helpful in order to produce a bona fide self help book. Thank you. I have multiple books on the horizon and I will definitely use you again.
