For when you have found the course of your storyline and need a more in depth look on the elements of your manuscript. I will check for accuracy, consistency, any plot holes, along with the quality of your storyline, the structure, and characters to keep readers immersed.

Services will include a detailed report outlining recommendations and comments made throughout your manuscript.

Things to expect on a developmental edit report may include but are not limited to:

• chapter by chapter recommendations, suggestions, and questions

• overall thoughts and any points that need to be adjusted

• thoughts on pacing

• character arc suggestions

• thoughts on setting

• trope, micro trope, and trigger warning suggestions and/or evaluation

• suggestions for marketing (quote teasers, possible art commissions)
