About this service

Summary

A First 5k Pass offers a thorough evaluation of your manuscript, combining developmental feedback and line editing.

The focus is on improving your opening, hook, premise, characterization, and world-building. You'll also receive line-by-line edits to enhance your writing style and voice as needed.

Due to NDAs and the nature of fiction editing, I am unable to provide samples of my work. However, please head over to my testimonial page to see what other writers are saying.

This service is ideal for:

  • querying writers seeking feedback
  • new authors looking to refine their skills
  • self-publishing writers determining their editing requirements before publication.
My Rate:
  • 5k words and under: $150
  • 5k-10k words: $300
Timeline:
  • Manuscripts under 100,000 words take 4-6 weeks.
  • Manuscripts over 100,000 words take 6-8 weeks.



Can't wait to hear about your story,
