Heavy Duty Line Editing

Heavy Duty Line Editing is major steps above light, but still short of true content editing. This level of editing includes restructuring and/or moving entire paragraphs, sections, scenes, etc. We'll also be correcting style, flow, and grammar, and as always, all while staying true to your individual voice.

Developmental/
Content Editing
$6.50 per page
Content/Developmental Editing is bringing out the big guns. It includes everything mentioned in the two lower levels of editing such as grammar, spelling and punctuation correction, restructuring paragraphs, sections, scenes, chapters, etc., as well as checking for plot holes, issues regarding character development, world-building, pacing, and overall content creation or story structure. We'll make sure your story arc is complete. And all this while still staying true to your voice and style.

Critiquing Your Manuscript
$2.00 per page
With me, you get much more than your typical critique and miles beyond what a beta reader is meant to do for you. This is a more intense reading with comments not just from the perspective of a reader but from the perspective of a writer, editor, and mentor as well. And all while looking at story structure, plot and conflict, pacing, world building, character development, and more.

Book Coaching
$30.00 per hour - on an as needed basis
(special pricing for writers ages 16 and under)
So you want to write a book but have no clue where to start? Or perhaps you just need help putting your story together or with your writing and/or storytelling skills? Depending on the genre of your fiction novel, I can help, from the conception of your story idea to the completion of that first draft.
My coaching is one on one, done at your pace, and never packaged. It’s all per your individual needs and desires.
Page Calculation (Formatting Specifications)
So, how does this work and how do you calculate how many pages you have?
Editing is done in Microsoft Word using the Track Changes feature, formatted as follows: one-inch margins all around, Times New Roman 12-point font, and 1.5 line spacing on a standard letter size 8.5" x 11" page.
