Every great book begins with a solid foundation and a strong, authentic voice. Whether you’re shaping the structure of your story or refining your prose for clarity and impact, I provide the editorial guidance you need to bring your manuscript to its full potential.
Developmental Editing
This in-depth edit focuses on your book’s big-picture elements—structure, pacing, character development, theme, and overall narrative flow. I’ll identify what’s working, what needs strengthening, and how to elevate your story so that readers stay engaged from the first page to the last. You’ll receive a detailed editorial letter outlining specific recommendations, along with in-text notes to help guide your revisions.
Line Editing
Once the structure is solid, line editing hones in on the craft of your writing itself—sentence rhythm, tone, style, and word choice. I’ll refine your prose for clarity, consistency, and emotional impact, ensuring your unique voice shines through while polishing your manuscript for a professional finish.
What You’ll Receive
A fully marked-up manuscript with in-text comments and suggestions
A comprehensive editorial summary with clear next steps
Optional follow-up call or email Q&A to discuss revisions
Whether you’re preparing your book for submission or self-publishing, I bring over seven years of experience working with both indie and traditionally published authors to help you craft a story that resonates, reads beautifully, and stands out in the marketplace.
