I will do a one pass developmental edit and manuscript critique

If your piece is below or above 80k, message me your exact word count. I will reply fast with a tailored Custom Offer to fit your project. I do not offer "Milestone" projects; full payment is required upfront to secure your slot in my queue.

I require a Word document (.doc/.docx) to utilize Track Changes for inline notes and style formatting. I do not work with Google Docs or any other live cloud-sharing platform.

Not at all. I edit across all fiction genres—including dark thriller, crime, and horror—so no warnings are necessary. If you would like to give me a general heads-up regarding your target audience or content themes before I open the file, you are always welcome to do so.

No. I offer a holistic, comprehensive analysis and require the full manuscript up front when the order begins. If you want a partial review, we can arrange a Custom Offer for a specific set of completed chapters.

No. To maintain momentum and accuracy, I only work with the file submitted at the start of the order. If you choose to make major revisions based on new ideas, you can resubmit your updated draft to me as a brand-new order once this diagnostic pass is complete.

Absolutely! Fiction writing is an iterative process. Whether it is a month later or a year later, I am happy to act as your trusted pair of eyes for a secondary structural pass, evaluating how your revisions have elevated the narrative arc, prose style, and character pacing.

You will receive your manuscript with clear inline feedback and a structural report. Basic includes 1-2 comments/chapter and a 3-page report. Standard delivers deep structural notes and a 5+ page report. Premium includes all structural notes plus detailed line-level prose and style polishing.

I never speed-read; I evaluate every word personally. I use AI (Gemini/Grammarly) to polish my notes, catch internal inconsistencies, and audit for plot holes. This "human-led, AI-augmented" workflow ensures elite, highly accurate feedback. I personally vet and finalize every single word sent.

I work in focused daily blocks, processing 1,500 to 3,000 words per hour, depending on your text's complexity. I dedicate 4-5 hours solely to auditing comments and crafting your structural report. I focus on one project at a time and send brief progress updates to clients every 5 to 10 days.

Once your order is complete, you can book a separate follow-up via Custom Offer. I provide written Q&A consultation or a 60- to 90-minute live Story Strategy video session via Fiverr Zoom to map out your revision roadmap. This ensures you are completely squared away for your next draft.
