About this Gig
Note: Send me a message for a custom order
Are you working or have finished working on a fantasy or sci-fi story that needs deeper stronger characters or a tighter plot? Or perhaps something that will connect to the reader?
I offer professional and in-depth developmental editing to help your manuscript shine before it reaches beta readers(me as well) or agents.
With experience in beta reading and critiquing science fiction and fantasy for over 130 authors here on Fiverr, I have decided to shift my focus on the big-picture elements that truly matter: plot logic, character arcs, pacing, worldbuilding, theme, and emotional resonance.
What you'll get:
- A detailed editorial letter summarizing strengths and improvement areas
- In-document comments on pacing, conflict, character depth, world rules, dialogue, and more
- Suggestions to cut filler, enhance structure, and increase narrative tension
- Honest, respectful, and constructive feedback
- Style sheet to track your story, completely
Genres I specialize in:
- Fantasy (epic, urban, dark, YA)
- Science Fiction (dystopian, space opera, near-future, etc.)
- Speculative fiction and genre mashups
Delivery style preference
Please inform the freelancer of any preferences or concerns regarding the use of AI tools in the completion and/or delivery of your order.

Yar did a fantastic job with my 75k literary sci fi manuscript. I received 3 documents: a thoughtful developmental report with critique, strengths/weaknesses, manuscript with comments, and a stylesheet. That is quite generous for the cost! He was very polite in the wording when delivering constructive...
