You have a vision for your story. What you don’t always have is space, clarity, or a sounding board.
Personalized editorial support gives you access to an experienced editor while you’re in the work—whether you’re drafting, revising, untangling a plot problem, or preparing for next steps. Instead of working on a full manuscript, we focus on the questions, sections, and decisions that matter most right now.
This is editorial support designed to meet you where you are and move at your pace.
What’s Included in Personalized Editorial Support
Flexible Editorial Feedback
Targeted feedback delivered via email, shared documents, or video calls. Used for revision questions, brainstorming, developmental guidance, or strategy sessions.
Section-Level Critiques
Focused feedback on short excerpts such as outlines, revised scenes, key chapters, or problem areas—reviewed with your goals and genre in mind.
Ongoing Guidance & Accountability
A consistent editorial check-in point to help you stay grounded, motivated, and moving forward through revisions or drafting.
Fully Tailored Support
No fixed package structure. Support is shaped around your project, preferences, and working style.
Available hourly or through monthly retainers.
Minimum booking: 2 hours.
All feedback is grounded in professional training and genre-aware craft analysis.
Personalized editorial support is collaborative and responsive by design. It does not replace a full manuscript assessment or developmental edit, and it does not involve co-writing or rewriting your work.
Is personalized editorial support right for you?
This service is a good fit if you:
✔ are revising and want feedback as you go
✔ need help working through specific story or craft challenges
✔ want a professional sounding board during drafting or revision
✔ benefit from consistent check-ins rather than one large edit
Personalized editorial support is flexible and discussion-based, offering focused feedback and guidance rather than comprehensive manuscript edits.
It works best as support during active drafting and revision, or as a supplement to other editing services.
