Do you need a deep dive into what is and is not working? Then you need a #DevelopmentalEdit.

How it works:

👉 I read your book, leaving in-line comments.
👉 I write an editorial letter saying what is and isn't working
😍 Then you get to begin revising!

Today, I dove into a client's manuscript. It had a beautiful friendship between characters.

But refining character motivation was needed.

Every choice needs a clear why to show the purpose and reason for their choices.

As an editor and teacher, my favorite part is witnessing the light bulb moment when clients learn something new about writing.

My goal is to turn their manuscript into a writing textbook, helping them become better writers.

As a professional editor, honesty is my guiding principle.

Trust and transparency are key. Because when an author can trust the feedback, they can make their book morph from good to unforgettable.

Day in the life of an editor. I was immersed in a fascinating world crafted by a talented author.

Feedback focused on not having every character is needed.

Have you ever felt overwhelmed by too many characters in a book?

Receiving constructive criticism can sting, but it's crucial for growth as writers. Even pros revise based on feedback. 💪 Be courageous, listen actively, and reflect objectively.
