His inline comments were extremely thorough, but he never lost sight of the larger structure, character arcs, pacing, and reader experience. He caught a number of issues and questions that had never occurred to me, even after...

He told me what was working, but he also clearly pointed out what wasn’t, which was exactly what I needed for revision. He caught several issues I had completely missed, including...
