Developmental Editing — 10,000 WordsSonja Antic
I'll do a developmental edit on up to 10,000 words of your fiction manuscript. Not line editing, not proofreading. This is the structural pass that makes your story actually work.

What I look at

Plot and pacing — does the story move? Are there dead spots, rushed beats, or scenes that don't earn their place?
Character arcs — do your characters change in ways that feel earned? Are motivations clear and consistent?
Structure — does the narrative architecture hold up? Are your act breaks, turning points, and climax landing where they should?
Tension and stakes — is there enough pull to keep a reader turning pages?
Voice consistency — does the narrative voice stay coherent, or does it drift between scenes?

What you get

A detailed editorial letter covering what's working, what isn't, and specific suggestions for how to fix it. Plus inline comments in your manuscript where something needs attention.
This isn't a vague "I liked it but maybe tighten the middle" pass. You'll get concrete, actionable feedback you can actually revise from.

Genres I work in

Romance, romantasy, gothic, mystery, fantasy, sci-fi, and others on request.

Larger projects

This listing covers up to 10,000 words at $0.015/word. For full manuscripts or ongoing chapter-by-chapter editing, message me and we'll work out scope and timeline.
