About this Gig
Writing a Romantasy novel is a tough tightrope walk. You aren't just building a magic system; you are trying to make readers lose their minds over the romantic tension. It's easy to get lost in plot holes, sagging middles, or chemistry that doesn't hit right.
If you wonder if your world-building makes sense or if your slow-burn is actually burning, I can help. As a developmental editor who lives and breathes fantasy romance, I focus on the big picture to get your manuscript reader-ready.
What we will look at together
- Tension: Is your enemies-to-lovers friction believable? Does the romance feel earned? World-Building: Keeping your magic system consistent without heavy info-dumps.
- Pacing: Spotting where the story drags and lining up romantic milestones with the fantasy plot.
- Character Arcs: Ensuring your characters have deep internal stakes and real growth.
What you get
- Editorial Letter: A supportive breakdown of what works, what needs love, and actionable fix ideas.
- In-Line Comments (Premium): Live margin notes left directly in your manuscript.
Please message me before ordering. Tell me your tropes and where you feel stuck so we can make sure we are a great match.
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
Do you edit "spice" (intimate scenes)?
Yes, absolutely. I look at intimate scenes through a developmental lens. I will evaluate whether the pacing, emotional connection, and intensity match your intended audience (from sweet/slow-burn to high spice) and ensure the scenes actively move the plot or character arcs forward.
What subgenres and tropes do you specialize in?
I edit all types of fantasy romance, including high fantasy, urban/modern, dark romantasy, and cozy fantasy. I am highly familiar with popular tropes like enemies-to-lovers, fated mates, forced proximity, fake dating, and royal court politics.
Will you fix my spelling, grammar, and typos?
No, this service is focused strictly on developmental editing (story structure, plot, character depth, world-building, and pacing). I will not line-edit or proofread your grammar, as it is best to fix the structural bones of your manuscript before polishing the prose.
What if my manuscript is over 80,000 words?
No problem at all. If your book is longer than my Premium package limit, please send me a direct message with your exact word count. I will gladly send you a custom offer tailored to the length of your manuscript.
