Empathetic, bespoke developmental editor. Tune in the truth of your concept. I am a professional book editor specializing in comprehensive developmental edits of manuscripts ranging from raw first drafts to material that has survived several iterations. Developmental edits demand that I immerse myself in the material, becoming every reader, as well as jungle guide, therapist, and devils advocate. My manuscript assessments and developmental edits provide annotated notes and direct-to-manuscript margin notes that tie together illustrations of issues within the manuscript and detailed guidance on why the issue is an issue.
For over 20 years I have collaborated with authors, becoming steeped in their processes, dreams, desires all the steps along their path to publication. I view every author and their manuscript as unique, and therefore, the edit process/service I recommend must also be unique and offer benefits tailored to specific needs or to the specific stage of the manuscript.
So, whether you are taking readers on a journey beyond this dimension, embroiling readers in a searing romance, or revealing your proprietary system for strengthening our life experience, my bespoke approach will honor your concept and your need to express that concept. My collaborations don't end at the completion of an edit or assessment. I will remain available for consults as you review your edit before diving into your rewrites. Communication is essential to every edit, regardless of your manuscripts draft stage, especially with developmental edits, my specialty. So, if you need support: Im here for you. As an extension of every authors journey to publication, I also offer support for agent queries, such as book proposals, synopses, and back cover blurbs.
