Services
From first draft to query letter, find the right service for you.
DEVELOPMENTAL EDITing
I'm a paragraph. Click here to add your own text and edit me. It's easy.
Developmental editing combines big-picture evaluation of your manuscript with detailed, scene-level feedback.​​
I’ll evaluate core storytelling elements—including narrative structure, pacing, character development, voice, and world-building—through both an in-depth editorial letter and comments within the manuscript. Together, these offer thoughtful, constructive guidance that strengthens your work while preserving your voice.
Best For: Writers with a completed manuscript draft seeking big-picture editorial feedback, revision guidance, and detailed in-manuscript comments.
What's Included
-
Introductory Consultation (1 hour)
A call to clarify your goals, vision, and priorities for the project. -
Detailed Editorial Letter
A multi-page letter (10-20+ pages depending on manuscript length) outlining your manuscript’s strengths and areas for growth, along with clear, actionable recommendations for revision. -
In-Manuscript Comments
Targeted marginal notes throughout the manuscript offering specific feedback on key scenes, character moments, and structural elements. -
Closing Consultation (1 hour)
A follow-up call to review feedback, answer questions, and help you prioritize next steps.​​

Manuscript critique
A manuscript critique is a streamlined, big-picture evaluation designed to guide your next round of revisions.​
​I’ll evaluate core storytelling elements—including narrative structure, pacing, character development, voice, and world-building—through a detailed editorial letter that identifies strengths, highlights areas for improvement, and offers clear guidance for revision. Because feedback is delivered through the editorial letter rather than comments in the manuscript, a critique offers focused editorial insight without a full developmental edit.
Best For: Writers with a completed manuscript draft seeking big-picture editorial feedback and revision guidance without in-manuscript comments.
