Developmental Editing

All (well, most) bodies need bones

A structure is built bones up. What happens if you have fractures and holes in your foundation?

Sometimes we find ourselves writing with passion and inspiration, a frenzy of emotions and flames–!
And then we realize it makes no organizational sense…

But it’s hard to adjust those pieces on our own because the writing makes perfect sense to our crazy creative brains. A helping hand is all that’s needed.

Developmental editing is meant to find those plot holes and not just fill them, but sew them closed with the appropriate thread and just a little bit of magic. Let me grab my sewing kit, hammer and toolbox, and help you perfect the flow and foundation of your work. Working together, you and I can ensure your writing is centred and reads exactly as you always imagined. Your characters will have full and thorough arcs, plotlines will be strong and sturdy, and the heart of your story will beat as it was always meant to.
