​
You have finished your novel, it has gone through one or two rounds of self-edits, maybe a couple of beta readers have had a cheeky look at your novel, and you feel GREAT about it. You are ready to give your book baby to someone who has spent years over-analysing literary works and is now a professional editor. If that is you, this is the plan you need!

What's in it for you:

Extensive 20+ Page Editorial Letter: Outlining strengths, areas for improvement, and actionable suggestions.
-
Feedback and Guidance: I do not shy away from giving detailed in-line feedback (you will see a lot of "YEEESSSS!! OMG!! This is soooo good").
-
Collaborative Relationship: As your editor, I will be working on your manuscript as best as I can, but the story really lives in your head so it is important to also foster a positive and supportive relationship with you.
