I will complete developmental edits of your fiction book, novel, or short story
About this Gig
Looking for a creative, thorough, and encouraging editor? Look no further!
As your developmental editor, I will dive deep into your novel, analyze the plot beats and character arcs, and gently suggest actionable steps to improve them so that your vision becomes a reality.
As an author myself, I understand how much precious time, effort, and passion you put into every word. Together, well shape your story to fit the market and fulfill your author goals!
My services include:
- Writing a 3-5 or 5-11 page editorial memo detailing actionable steps for revising your novel: I will read over your novel several times and make notes, tracking the character arcs and plot beats. I will then compile my notes into a structured document that addresses each developmental issue with suggestions for improvement, including:
- Mapping story structure
- Analyzing themes in your novel
- Keeping the character arcs and personalities consistent
- Assessing marketing potential, reader expectations, and genre tropes
- Making in-line edits with suggestions for improvement: I will make comments and suggest edits regarding character arcs, plot beats, word flow, and prose
- Following up to discuss any questions you have
Genre:
Mystery
Language:
English

FAQ
Do you edit non-fiction as well?
While non-fiction is not my specialty, I can absolutely work with you on your non-fiction project.
Do you proofread?
While I will occasionally point out small, recurring errors in spelling, prose, or grammar, I am a developmental editor, which means I look at the big picture errors in your novel like structure and character instead of grammar and proofreading
Do you edit explicit content?
No. I will edit books in the romance genres only if they are clean, closed door, or low-spice. I will also not edit books with explicit violence or scenes.

This is my first time using Kclannon's services and I was not disappointed. She went well beyond my editing expectations and gave useful indepth developmental editing notes that have encouraged me to rethink and rewrite the stories I submitted. I feel like her editing notes are exactly what I needed to take these pieces to the next level.
