You just finished your manuscript. Congrats! But now the rewriting starts, and you wonder if you should hire a book editor.
Signs you might need a developmental editor:
Am I heading in the right direction? Where do I even start with rewriting? You’re feeling like something’s off, and you want a second set of eyes on the page, to see what the weaknesses and strengths of your novel are.
Instead of struggling for years between your first and final draft, you’re looking for a way to see how your story can improve in weeks.
That’s where I come in.
What I offer:
A. Editorial Assessment — A broad breakdown of your story’s plot, structure, and characters. You’ll know exactly where your story shines and where it’s losing readers.
B. Developmental Edit — In-line comments throughout your manuscript, scene by scene, explaining why something works or doesn’t — and how to fix it.
C. Both
Why work with me?
I’m a developmental editor specialised in fantasy — romantasy, epic fantasy, grimdark, dark fantasy, and cosy fantasy.
I only take on stories I genuinely believe in, ones I think readers will love. I’m not here to lightly tweak your manuscript. I want to give you feedback that improves your story by miles.
