I will be your science fiction or fantasy developmental editor

Are you part of the way through writing a speculative fiction novel?

Consider hiring me as your developmental editor to give you thoughtful feedback and suggestions before you've written yourself into a corner or even to help you write your way out.

As a full-time independent writer and editor who's worked on hundreds on projects, both my own and for commission, I know what it's like to write "by the seat of your pants" and end up in unexpected places. Take advantage of my hard-won experience and knowledge of writing craft by sending me a message about your project.

Together we'll find the secret ingredient your story is missing.

Quick General Feedback: Are you looking to get some general feedback in a timely manner? I'll make big picture suggestions and provide my impressions about the overall narrative.

Work in Progress: If you have disconnected scenes and a vague plan but hit some difficulty, then I'll help you cut out what isn't working and plot a solution.

Novel Structural Edit: I will provide a general critique of your manuscript, identifying areas for improvement when it comes to world-building, character development, writing style, and the overall plot.
