Developmental editing takes a look at the big picture. You'll receive in-line comments throughout your manuscript, as well as a detailed editorial letter. I'll discuss the manuscript's strengths (because validation is important too!). I'll also point out and explain pain points in the manuscript, and I will offer suggested revisions. My goal is to make your story shine, while keeping your voice, style, and vision intact. 

​

In a developmental edit, I look at things like: plot development, story and scene structure, emotional beats, character arcs, pacing, world-building, dialogue. and style.
