Words & Worlds:

I've recently started up a sideline in story structure editing (sometimes called developmental or conceptual editing). This is the step before line editing. I provide an Editorial Report as well as comments within the manuscript itself.

If your first draft is a mess and you don't have a clue how to fix it, or if you know there's something wrong with your story, but can't put your finger on what, I can probably help you.

What makes me qualified? In addition to revising my own work, I have been a member of a writer's critique group for over 20 years.

Rates:

3 chapters: $35

Manuscript (under 55,000 words): $75

Manuscript (under 110,00 words): $150

Other: negotiable

Why so cheap? Firstly, as a writer myself I know cash can be hard to find. Secondly, I'm a fast reader.
