About this Gig

BOOK EDITOR


I help authors turn their drafts into strong, reader-ready manuscripts.


If your pacing drags, characters feel inconsistent, emotional impact falls flat, or your story just isn't hitting the way you imagined, beta feedback may have shown you the problems, but not how to fix them.


That's where my developmental editing comes in


I go beyond reader reactions to break down why your story is not working and how to improve it without losing your voice. I focus on structure, pacing, character development, emotional stakes, and story flow, especially for Dark Romance, Thriller, and Psychological Fiction.


What you will receive:


  • An editorial letter covering your manuscript's strengths and key areas for improvement
  • In-line comments highlighting structural, pacing, and character issues
  • A clear revision roadmap so you know exactly what to fix first and how


This is a deeper step than beta reading. It turns feedback into practical story improvement.

If you've used beta reading before, this is the next stage in shaping your manuscript into a complete, compelling story.


Send me your word count, genre, and any concerns before ordering so I can guide you to the right package.
