Whether you're writing your first book or your tenth, I'm here to help you turn your manuscript into a polished, professional, publishable work—and guide you through every step of getting it into readers' hands. For the past six years, I've worked with authors across genres and formats: fiction writers building historical novels, romantasy, middle-grade fantasy, and contemporary romance; non-fiction authors creating workbooks, memoirs, and thought-leadership books; and creatives designing custom journals and guided writing resources. No matter what you're working on, my goal is the same: to help you create something you're proud of—something that looks great, reads flawlessly, and connects with your audience. My Services Include: Developmental Editing & Line Editing– I refine story structure, pacing, tone, and style while preserving your voice. For fiction, I strengthen character depth, dialogue, and plot consistency (I love a well-placed twist!). For non-fiction, I clarify flow, argument, and reader engagement. For workbooks and journals, I make sure prompts are clear, engaging, and purposeful. Proofreading– Your essential final polish. I catch every grammar, punctuation, and formatting error—perfect for manuscripts, book proposals, workbooks, and author websites. Book Coaching & Publishing Guidance– Confused about whether to self-publish or go traditional? Not sure how to navigate Amazon KDP, IngramSpark, or Barnes & Noble Press? I'll walk you through your options step-by-step via video call, helping you choose the publishing route that's right for your goals, timeline, and budget. Typesetting / Interior Layout Design – Professionally formatted interiors ready for print and digital distribution—clean, readable, and tailored to your genre. Whether it's a novel, a workbook, or a guided journal, I make sure your book looks as good as it reads. Custom Cover Design– Eye-catching, market-ready covers that attract your ideal readers. Designed using Canva, InDesign, and other professional tools—always print- and upload-ready. Book Proposal & Query Letter Writing– If you're seeking a traditional publishing deal, I'll write a standout book proposal and query letter package that aligns with publisher expectations and showcases your book's unique hook. Ghostwriting & Content Development– Need help bringing your story or message to life? I offer full or partial ghostwriting for fiction, memoir, and thought-leadership non-fiction. Publishing Process Management– From manuscript finalization to distribution setup, I can manage the logistics of self-publishing so you can focus on writing and marketing your book. What You Can Expect: I start by reviewing your manuscript or project to make sure we're the right fit. Once we confirm, I provide a detailed quote and timeline—and then dive right in. You'll receive clear, constructive feedback directly in your manuscript, plus an Editor's Report summarizing key insights and recommendations. Need help implementing changes or making publishing decisions? I also offer video consultations where we brainstorm edits, rework chapters, discuss cover design, compare publishing platforms, and build your launch strategy. So, why should you want to work with me? As a published author and experienced editor, I understand how personal and emotional the writing journey can be. My approach is collaborative, encouraging, and always focused on helping your book reach its fullest potential—without ever losing your voice. Whether you're polishing a sci-fi thriller, designing a self-care workbook, formatting a romance series for KDP, or trying to figure out if traditional publishing is right for you, I'm here to make the process not just achievable, but enjoyable. Let's get started! I'm open for consultations!

Wait! Before you scroll - give me 30 seconds 🎯 Ever hired someone who technically completed the job… but only just? The boxes were ticked. The contract was fulfilled. But the care wasn’t there, and things were rushed. I’m the person who doesn't brush over the details. I catch what others miss, whether that’s a weak paragraph hiding between the pages of your manuscript or a hallucination in an AI model. And yes, I can back that up. 📚 Book Editing & Story Development --------------------------------------------- I’m an avid reader (borderline obsessive) and experienced editor working across fiction and non-fiction. I specialize in: ✦ Romance (all sub-genres) ✦ Mystery & thrillers ✦ Fantasy & sci-fi ✦ Business & technical non-fiction I don’t just fix grammar. I format for publication, tighten structure, improve pacing, and strengthen clarity. I look at whether a book works - emotionally, commercially, and structurally. 🤖 AI Model Evaluation & Data Annotation -------------------------------------------------- I’ve logged 2+ years and thousands of hours on annotation and model evaluation projects. I work carefully. I follow guidelines closely. I flag ambiguity instead of guessing. Because I understand that one small annotation mistake can quickly scale into a very large model issue. My experience includes: ✦ LLM response comparison (Model A vs Model B) ✦ Hallucination identification ✦ Truthfulness & safety evaluation ✦ Instruction-following analysis ✦ Localization tuning (South African, UK & US English) ✦ QA and edge-case logging 🖋️ Writing & SEO Content -------------------------------- I write clear, structured, SEO-aware content in: ✦ Finance & economics ✦ Business & strategy ✦ Health & wellness ✦ Lifestyle & beauty No fluff.

▶️ 𝗔 𝗨𝗻𝗶𝗾𝘂𝗲 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗿𝘁: My name's Ryan W. McClellan, MS, and I was the kid in elementary school who rented out pencils to other students for $0.10 because I saw a shortage in the market. 𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗡𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝗠𝗲: I possess roughly two decades of experience working with companies across multiple industry verticals, from startups to Fortune 1000 companies alike, and my time as a marketer has cultivated a distinctive skill set that makes me a nightmare for your competitors. ▶️ 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗧𝘄𝗶𝘀𝘁 𝗜𝗻 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗣𝗹𝗼𝘁: I don't just act as a marketer; I read the room (quite literally, sometimes). Holding a BA in Organizational Psychology and an MS in Digital Marketing, I possess a fond and noble understanding of buyer and consumer behavior. ▶️ 𝗡𝗼𝘁 "𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁," 𝗕𝘂𝘁 "𝗪𝗵𝘆?" I don't just examine the "what," but rather, I look for the “why.” Understanding that “what” comes after “why” has made many of my clients incredibly lucrative, and in an incredibly short amount of time. ▶️ 𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗜 𝗖𝗮𝗻 𝗛𝗲𝗹𝗽 𝗬𝗼𝘂: I work across all aspects of the marketing lifecycle, from PPC to SEO, content, email, creative strategy, and everything in between, owning every aspect of your consumer’s unique journey (and all while executing this alongside your team rather than handing off a deck). ▶️ 𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗜𝘀 𝗔 𝗖𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝗧𝗼 𝗔𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: Whether you know it or not, you have a weakness in your marketing strategy, but maybe you haven't identified it yet. If I can find it for you, I'll help you solve it. If I find nothing worth changing, adjusting, or improving, you owe me nothing. And other than that, I'm always looking to collaborate, so reach out to me! 😀
