What you get with this Offer
Do you want your novel to resonate with readers, with clear character arcs, strong structure, and emotional impact?
If you're working with a mid-draft or completed novel (but not at final draft stage), I can help you shape it into a stronger, more resonant version of itself; one that holds together structurally, emotionally, and thematically.
Thoughtful margin comments that explain why I suggest changes — helping you learn as you revise.
Two pages of clear editorial notes (minimum) summarising strengths, identifying key issues, and offering next steps. This is practical, encouraging feedback. So, ideal if you're polishing for submission, preparing for self-publishing, or tightening the story after beta reads.
Not sure if we’re a fit? I offer a free two-page sample edit so you can see exactly how I work before you commit. And, do review my positive feedback on PPH for this type of work.
What this service is (and isn’t):
This is not a rewriting service — I don’t rewrite your manuscript for you. Instead, I give you clear, actionable guidance on what’s working, what needs strengthening, and how you can revise it effectively.
It’s also not a beta read. I’ll dig into deeper craft issues like structure, character arcs, theme, pacing, and coherence.
Think of this as editorial problem-solving: I help you see the novel through a professional lens, pointing out what needs refinement and why, so you can revise with confidence and direction. You stay in control of your story; I help you see it more clearly.
Ready to move your story forward? Let’s start with that sample edit.
