Developmental Edit
"The Dissection Table" — $0.04 / word
What It Is
Big-picture analysis of structure, pacing, and character arcs. This is a deep structural read of your manuscript — I'm looking at whether the bones of your story are strong before we worry about the prose on top of them.
When You Need It
After your first or second draft, before line or copy edits. Strengthens the foundation of your story so every scene works harder.
Why You Need It
Structural problems are expensive to fix late. A developmental edit catches pacing issues, character arc gaps, and plot holes while they're still cheap to revise — before you've polished sentences that might get cut anyway.
Deliverables
Editorial letter, annotated manuscript (Track Changes), optional 30-minute follow-up call.
