Hire the Best Editors in New York

Writing a book is hard. Figuring out why it isn't quite working is even harder. That's where I come in. I specialize in developmental editing, ghostwriting, manuscript evaluations, and collaborative rewrites for fiction and narrative nonfiction. Whether you've finished a first draft, have an AI-generated manuscript that needs a human touch, or simply know something about your story isn't landing the way you hoped, I'll help you identify what's working, what's not, and how to fix it. My goal is never to rewrite your book into my voice. It's to strengthen your story while preserving what makes it yours. I've worked on projects ranging from 20,000-word novellas to 150,000-word fantasy novels, as well as romance, thrillers, historical fiction, self-help, and narrative nonfiction. Some clients hire me for a straightforward beta read. Others need a developmental partner to restructure scenes, deepen character arcs, tighten pacing, or completely rewrite sections of a manuscript. Every project is different, and I adapt my approach to meet the needs of both the author and the story. I can help with: • Developmental editing • Ghostwriting and collaborative writing • Manuscript evaluations • Full and partial manuscript rewrites • Beta reading with detailed editorial reports • Story structure and pacing • Character development and dialogue • AI-generated manuscript refinement • Line editing, copy editing, and proofreading When I edit, I'm looking beyond grammar. I'm looking at reader engagement. Are the character motivations believable? Is the pacing keeping readers turning pages? Does the dialogue sound natural? Are emotional moments earning their impact? Those are the questions I ask on every manuscript. When I ghostwrite, I'm chasing the moments readers remember. The line that makes someone stop and think, Oh my God, did he really just say that? The conversation that feels so real it could have happened yesterday. The scene that keeps someone reading long after they meant to put the book down. Whether I'm working from a detailed outline or building a story alongside a client, my goal is always the same: write something that feels authentic, emotionally satisfying, and impossible to skim past. You'll receive honest, constructive feedback, clear communication throughout the project, and an editor who genuinely wants your book to succeed. Whether you need a second opinion or someone to roll up their sleeves and help rebuild a manuscript from the inside out, I'd love to hear about your project.

Here to help take your script or idea to the next level! With a decade’s worth of experience as a script reader for companies such as The Black List, Andrew Lauren Productions, The Donners’ Company, Coverfly, Shore Scripts, and many more, I bring extensive knowledge of scriptwriting to any project. Working in development has allowed me to understand what makes a project stand out and how to get it to the point of selling. Whether that be editing your project, providing feedback, or adding my own writing to your idea, I will be happy to be a collaborative partner and add complete professionalism from start to finish. Having spent a long period of my career in development, I have shifted my focus more toward my own writing. This has allowed me to see tremendous success in my own projects, with my psychological thriller, THRESHOLD, ranking in the top lists on The Black List for the genre. It has received glowing reviews, calling it “hard to put down,” “leaves us on the edge of our seats,” and one reader stated that “Because this script is so well written, it feels as if it could be a strong calling card for the writer.” Outside of my own writing, I have also helped numerous clients ghostwrite and punch up their scripts. This work has spanned all different genres and mediums, from noir to comedy to thrillers and dramas, including work in TV, Film, Podcasts, and YouTube. I am a highly adaptable writer and have the right experience to make any project stand out. Feel free to reach out anytime with questions about rate or turnaround times. Thanks for reading, and I hope to work together soon!
