What I'm offering:

Yay!! You made my day - they were so fun to write!

I combine a developmental edit with a content edit to give you a complete written evaluation of your short story, novella, or novel.

Do you just need someone to tell you that you've reached your goal? Or someone who will tell you where the story needs some help. Even though it's fiction, making it sound as real as possible should be the goal. Get your facts straight! I'll help you do that. I'll tell you where it lacks reality or fails to make sense. And I'll suggest solutions, but I won't rewrite. This is your story. I just help you make it everything you want it to be!

 

But if you're having trouble with your plot or creating believable characters? Have a great beginning and an incredible end but keep getting stuck in the middle? Need more conflict but don't know where to add it. I'm here to help.

 

I will provide an in-depth review of your writing. It'll be focused on improving the content and structure of your short story, novella, novel, or nonfiction book.So it reads believable.

My primary goal is to help a book have a clear focus. And ensure that the elements, such as tone and style, plot lines, character development, and red herrings, all make sense.

 

I will compose an editorial letter that takes in the entire perspective of the writing and recommends keeping the piece focused. I will address the following issues:

 

·        Character development

·        Dialogue

·        Tone or style

·        Sentence phrasing

·        Pacing concerns

·        Setting issues

·        Plot holes

 

A Line Edit is available using 'Track Changes' for another fee, but ALL FEES NEGOTIABLE! Especially for new writers. I want to work with you to make your debut novel/story the best it can be!

This is not a complete copyedit or proofread regarding grammar. 

But any issues found will be pointed out.

The price is ONLY $.01 or .005 / word

You can order a Developmental Edit-analysis in Report format 

at $.01 per word

 or 

Line by Line Edit with suggestions on the side using Track Changes at $.005 per word

or the Full Works at $.01

100,000 words at $.01 = $1,000 -- Full Edit

100,000 words at $.005 = $500 -- Line by Line

or

Full Edit for New Client 100,000 words or any length = $ .005 

Line by Line Edit for New Client 100,000 words or any length $.0025 = $250

100,000 is used as an example. Any word count will work.

And that goes for any writing format

flash fiction

short story

novella

novel

Renée always sees to the heart of my stories. She understands my goals and offers suggestions to polish and enhance that vision. Her edit notes are thorough and so helpful. Working with Renée makes my stories stronger. Thanks again, Renée!

Renee, you're amazing. Thank you so much. I'm so glad I decided to ask for your editing. Your comments are super-helpful. I now see more work ahead of me to bring the story to the publishing level, but at least the future directions are clear.

Thanks, Olga.

I love working with Renée!

My stories are always stronger with her input. She helps me ensure I’ve “closed the loops” on all the plot points. Her edit notes are thorough, on point, and encouraging.

Thanks for everything, Renée!

Once again, Renée has proven herself to be a fantastic editor. Her work is detailed and so helpful. It’s a pleasure to work with Renée. I love knowing my stories are safe in her hands.

Robert Perreault wrote this regarding the Developmental Edit of his novel Robber's Row:

Renee is a fantastic editor. In addition to her insightful developmental edits, opinions, and ideas, she also provides helpful editorial edits as well. She does make me rewrite :>) but it's worth it. The finished product will be so much better because of her.

Robert Perreault wrote this regarding the Developmental Edit of his novel, Spanish Wells:

Renee is a force to be reckoned with! It was my first time working with her, and it will certainly not be my last. In addition to insightful developmental edits and ideas, she included some helpful line edits as well. To top it all off, delivery came early (I won't expect that in the future of course). I think I just found myself a hidden gem!
