Service Packages

Developmental editing is a deep dive into the heart of your manuscript. We’ll start with a 5,000-word sample edit to determine the project rate (starting at $0.018/word). Once we begin, you’ll get:

• An introductory call to make sure I fully understand your vision and goals.
• A 15–25+ page PDF editorial letter with detailed feedback on:
  • Plot structure and pacing
  • Character development
  • Worldbuilding depth
  • Themes and subtext
  • Audience expectations
  • Dialogue and scene structure
  • General writing craft
  • Any specific concerns you want addressed
• A 90-minute follow-up call to discuss the feedback and your next steps.
• Email support throughout the process for questions or clarifications.

This service is ideal for authors ready for a comprehensive, collaborative approach to make their story the best it can be.

A manuscript critique offers a high-level assessment that’s more detailed than a beta read, but less intensive than a full developmental edit. We’ll begin with a 3,000-word sample edit to determine the rate (starting at $0.012/word). Your critique will include

• An introductory call to ensure I understand your vision and goals.
• A 5–15 page PDF critique letter with observations on
  • Plot arc and structure
  • Character development
  • Audience expectations
  • General impressions
  • Any specific concerns you want addressed
• My general impressions of the manuscript’s readiness for its next draft.
