About this Gig
Developmental editor for fiction book
Your fiction manuscript deserves more than a quick proofread it needs a developmental editor who understands story.
I help fiction writers strengthen plot, pacing, character arcs, and structure before their book goes to print or query. As an experienced book editor, I dig into the big-picture issues that make or break a story not just typos.
What you get:
- Full manuscript read-through with editorial lens
- Detailed feedback on plot holes, pacing, and character consistency
- Chapter-by-chapter notes or an editorial letter (your choice)
- Actionable revision suggestions, not vague comments
- Genre-aware fiction editing (romance, fantasy, thriller, literary, YA)
Whether you're prepping for agents, self-publishing, or just want your story to hit harder I'll help you get there.
Message me with your word count and genre, and let's fix your book's foundation first.
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.

FAQ
What genres do you edit?
I work with most fiction genres, romance, fantasy, thriller, literary fiction, YA, and more. Message me your genre if you're unsure it's a fit.
What's the difference between developmental editing and proofreading?
Developmental editing focuses on big-picture story elements, plot, pacing, character arcs, structure. Proofreading only catches typos and grammar. This gig is for the former.
Do you edit incomplete manuscripts or works-in-progress?
Do you edit incomplete manuscripts or works-in-progress? Yes. I can work with partial manuscripts, outlines, or full drafts. Just let me know where you are in the process.
Will you tell me if my story isn't good?
I give honest, constructive feedback focused on what's not working and how to fix it, never harsh, always aimed at making your story stronger.
What format will I receive my feedback in?
You'll get either a detailed editorial letter, in-line chapter notes, or both, your choice, discussed before I start.
Do you sign an NDA?
Yes, I'm happy to sign an NDA if you'd like extra confidentiality for your manuscript.
