Romance Developmental Editor
Kiss and Critique • ZZP
Dec 2022 - Present • 3 yrs 7 mos
Founder of Kiss and Critique, where I work with romance writers to fix what’s not working at the structural level, before it turns into a full-blown “why does this feel off?” crisis. I’ve worked with both indie and bestselling authors, from messy first drafts to manuscripts that are almost there but not quite hitting the mark. Different writers, same goal: make the story actually work. I specialise in spotting the issues quietly sabotaging your story, like uneven pacing, weak turning points, inconsistent character motivation, and emotional arcs that almost land… but don’t. My feedback is detailed, practical, and actually usable. Writers leave with clear direction, stronger story foundations, and a much better grip on what their story is doing (and what it should be doing).

Not only did she give me reader reactions to every part she found deserving, but she also gave me constructive feedback on what I could improve and what was...

Ritika's comments are so helpful! I really appreciate her feedback in sorting out this particular book - it's been stickier to write than I had hoped for, but we will get there with Ritika's thoughtful critique.

Working with Marika was an absolutely amazing experience. She delivered the beta reading report even earlier than expected, and all of her inline comments and overall feedback make perfect sense. She has a very professional approach and provided incredibly valuable insights for my manuscript. I highly...

I was initially referred to Ritika to do a sensitivity read of my historical romance novella since the heroine is half-Indian, but I also chose to add in a beta read as well. I haven't had time to read the full coverage but I did skim it and it seems thorough. I appreciate that I received both a multi-page...
