Frequently Asked Questions

You can fill out my contact form, send me an email, or give me a call to discuss your project. I’ll review your needs and recommend the best service for you.

Both manuscript evaluations and developmental editing focus on the big-picture elements of your story—pacing, structure, character development, and overall storytelling impact. However, they offer different levels of depth and support.

Manuscript Evaluation – A broad, high-level assessment of your novel. I’ll read through your manuscript and provide a detailed editorial letter (no in-line edits) that highlights strengths, areas for improvement, and next steps. This is great for writers who want a roadmap for revision without diving into extensive edits.

Developmental Editing – A deep dive into your story’s foundation with more hands-on feedback. In addition to an editorial letter, I provide in-line comments throughout your manuscript to pinpoint specific areas that need revision. This is best for writers looking for guided, detailed feedback on every aspect of their story before moving on to line editing or copyediting.
