Whether you're revising your first completed manuscript, or revising your thirtieth novel, it's all too easy to get stuck. A thorough developmental edit can be the difference between a fully realized story and one that stays in a desk drawer. I offer several packages of developmental edits depending on where you are in your writing journey. 

FULL MANUSCRIPT EDIT

This is the whole shebang. Send me your complete manuscript, and I will read and review for plot, character, theme, pacing, and style. In return, you can expect a comprehensive edit letter as well as red-lined document with "in the moment" comments. (Note: this is not a line or copy edit.) Included is one 1-hour phone call.

RATE:
​$0.03/word up to 90K words

FIRST 50

For those who are not quite ready for a full review. This is a good option for writers who are feeling stuck or perhaps just want some feedback on the beginning of their MS. I will read and review for plot, character, theme, pacing, and style. In return, you can expect a comprehensive edit letter. 
​

RATE:
​Flat rate of $350 up to 15K words

PROJECT OVERVIEW

Just starting a new project? Still in that brainstorming phase? Or maybe embarking on revisions but you're not sure where to start? Send me your synopsis and outline, and I'll review it for plot, character, theme, pacing, and style. In return, you will receive an in depth project overview letter and follow up phone call. 

RATE: 
Flat rate of $150 up to 10 pages


BOOKING CALENDAR

“Erin is a master at fixing plot, whether it is pacing issues with plot points (she loves her W), character development, or simply being a wordsmith with succinct style, her editorial feedback is invaluable.” ~ Desiree G.
