About this Gig
Congratulations! You finished the first draft of your first novel. Whether it's your first short story or your latest in a series, it's a huge accomplishment! I can't wait to tear it apart.
Just kidding. I'm here to make your book even better than it already is. My goal is to take what you wrote and help you craft it into the compelling tale you meant to tell.
We'll work together on things like pacing, character development, structure, and more to turn your first draft into a riveting page-turner.
Here's how I do it--I don't just point out what is "wrong" with your novel. I tell you what is great about it, too, so you know how to turn the weaker parts around and make them shine.
Who Am I?
My name is Michelle Cerone, and I am a fantasy and romance writer with a degree in English from Rutgers University. I recently published an eBook called 1000 Ways to WAHM and am currently querying my MGF Alex Murphy and the Golden Ram.
I am a professional writer with 15 years of expereince, and I love fast-paced stories with super high stakes. No need to send a trigger warning-I accept all content.

FAQ
What does this gig include?
This is a gig for developmental editing only. I do note grammatical errors, but not in a comprehensive way. This is because you may make substantial changes to your MS after a developmental edit and reintroduce errors into the copy.

Michelle gave me thorough, actionable feedback on my draft that was both thoughtful and encouraging. She pointed out weak areas without being harsh, but also gave insight into what was working well so I knew which areas to lean into more. I would definitely recommend and will use her again!
