You've either completed a draft or are in the process of writing. Coaching and Developmental Editing involve transforming your ideas into cohesive draft, or providing feedback and structural changes to a completed manuscript.
Coaching and Developmental Editing are tailored to meet your specific project's needs. This can include high-level 1 on 1 brainstorming sessions to create a road map, prioritization strategy, structure, and outline.
Developmental Editing can involve rearranging sections and chapters, trimming the fat, and filling in the gaps. I'll provide meta-level guidance while helping you straighten out the details.
Options for services will also include research, rewriting, restructuring, and line editing. I will assess your manuscript and together, we will make a plan before I guide you through the process.
My insight, experience, and intuition will support this critical stage of honing and finessing your story.

RECENT COACHING &
DEVELOPMENTAL EDITING PROJECTS
In 1 on 1 coaching sessions, the author and I developed a comprehensive tone, co-wrote the Introduction, and restructured and organized the chapter outline.
For Empire of Shadow, I met with the author in several 1 on 1 Zooms, and delivered a 3-page "Idea Check" analysis of her chapter summaries with character analysis support and questions. I also provided publication strategies and support.
