Project details

*Tiers are according to word count*

If your short story is in need of a developmental edit, line edit, or copyedit, you've come to the right place. With the purchase of this service, I will give your story a high-quality, comprehensive edit and get it back to you within three days.

I will make your work shine without compromising your voice. I offer constructive criticism, but I will also let you know what you are doing well.

All edits will appear as Tracked Changes and comments on Microsoft Word or Google Docs, according to your preference.

These edits will focus on:
- character development
- structural flow
- thematic strengths
- internal consistency and logic
- stylistic flow
- grammar
- punctuation
- spelling

I am happy to work on stories of any genre, but please note that I specialize in speculative fiction (that is, science fiction and fantasy). Some of my favourite subgenres include: first contact with aliens, dystopia, cyberpunk, dying earth/climate SF, flintlock fantasy, and anything that takes place in, on, or around the sea.
