Quick Line Edit for Dystopian Thriller
Worldwide
Quick Line Edit for 90,000-Word Adult Dystopian Romantic Thriller I’m seeking an experienced fiction line editor for my completed adult dystopian romantic thriller, approximately 90,000 words. The novel follows a young investigative journalist navigating political corruption, a dangerous resistance movement, and a romantic triangle. The manuscript has already undergone developmental revisions, so I am not looking for major plot restructuring. I need a quick but thoughtful line edit focused on: Improving sentence clarity and flow Removing unnecessary repetition Identifying overly dense exposition Varying repetitive body language and dialogue actions Strengthening pacing within scenes Correcting distracting grammatical or punctuation errors Preserving the protagonist’s anxious, reserved, calculating voice I do not want the prose aggressively condensed, rewritten into a generic style, or stripped of interiority. The ideal editor has experience with adult speculative fiction, dystopian fiction, romantic thrillers, or romance-forward genre fiction. Also the ideal editor could do this in 3-4 days! Please include the word MUSIC at the top of your letter, your availability, estimated turnaround time and what you love and the dystopian genre. I am preparing the manuscript for literary-agent submissions and would prefer someone who can begin soon.
