I offer thoughtful, story‑centered editing for fantasy manuscripts across middle grade, young adult, adult fantasy, and romantacy. My approach is gentle and encouraging, focused on helping you strengthen your story at every stage of the writing process. Below, you’ll find the services I offer and how I can support your work.

I offer developmental editing, line editing, copyediting, and proofreading. Each service supports a different stage of the writing process, from big‑picture story structure to sentence‑level polish, so you can choose the level of support that best fits your manuscript’s needs

If you’re unsure, that’s completely normal. Many authors aren’t certain which stage they’re in. I’m happy to look at your goals and where you are in the process to help you choose the service that will be most helpful and cost‑effective for your manuscript.

I price all projects using a simple per‑word rate, so you always know exactly what to expect. My current rates are:

• Developmental Editing: $0.02 per word

• Line & Copyediting: $0.015 per word

• Proofreading: $0.01 per word

Your final quote is based on your manuscript’s total word count and the level of editing needed. Once I review your pages, I’ll provide a clear estimate so you know the full cost before we begin. There are no hidden fees, and I never charge for unnecessary work — just thoughtful, story‑centered support tailored to your project.

If you’re unsure which service you need, I’m happy to help you choose the best fit for your manuscript.

Instead of using client work, I provide original sample paragraphs on my website that demonstrate my developmental, line, and proofreading approaches. This allows you to see my style clearly while protecting client confidentiality.

My approach is warm, clear, and collaborative. I focus on strengthening your story while honoring your voice and creative vision. Whether I’m working on MG fantasy or adult romantacy, my goal is to help you feel supported, understood, and empowered as you revise.

Turnaround times vary depending on the service and my current schedule, but most projects are completed within a few weeks. When you inquire, I’ll share my next available start date and a realistic timeline for your specific manuscript.

You can reach out through my inquiry form. Once we confirm the service, timeline, and rate, I’ll send a simple agreement and invoice to secure your spot on my calendar.

Absolutely. I love working with writers at every stage, including those who are revising their very first manuscript. My feedback is always encouraging, clear, and designed to help you grow your craft.

Yes. I offer partial‑manuscript edits for authors who want feedback on their opening chapters, pacing, voice, or world‑building before committing to a full edit.

Yes. I’m happy to work on sequels or series installments, and I’ll ask for a brief summary of previous books so I can maintain continuity.

I don’t offer rush services. I want to give every manuscript the thoughtful, focused attention it deserves, and that requires a steady, sustainable pace.

I work in Microsoft Word (.docx) using Track Changes and margin comments. This format allows for clear, transparent feedback that’s easy to revise from.

Developmental edits include an editorial letter and in‑document comments. Line edits, copyedits, and proofreading are completed directly in the manuscript using Track Changes. You’ll receive everything in one organized package.

If you’d like to talk through your notes, I offer optional follow‑up calls for developmental edits. These conversations can be especially helpful for brainstorming revisions or clarifying next steps.

Yes—during line editing, copyediting, and proofreading. Developmental editing focuses on story‑level elements, so mechanical corrections are not the priority at that stage.

Yes, within reason. I’m comfortable working with darker themes common in adult fantasy and romantacy. If your manuscript includes particularly intense content, feel free to mention it in your inquiry so I can confirm it’s a good fit.

No editor can guarantee publication, but I can help you strengthen your manuscript, clarify your storytelling, and present your work with confidence.

Most projects require a deposit to reserve your spot, with the remaining balance due upon delivery. I’ll outline everything clearly before we begin so you know exactly what to expect.

Because editing is a time‑based service, I don’t offer refunds once work has begun. If you need to reschedule, I’m happy to discuss options depending on availability.

While I don’t offer submission support, I’m always happy to point you toward helpful resources and organizations that can guide your next steps.
