So, here I am.
I can read your novel, no matter how many words :) I prefer completed novels, but I can read chapters as well. Only fiction tho. También puede ser la novela en español ;)
Only novels, or novellas. Definitely not poems, fanfiction, or children books.
Preferred genres:
-Horror
-Sci-Fi
-Fantasy
-Thriller
-Mystery
Genres I prefer not to:
-Romance
-Western
-History
Even tho, a mix and match of genres can be possible. It all depends on the blurb.
What I offer:
It depends on what we end up agreeing on, but basically:
• In depth analysis and commentary on each scene, and comments on each line that needs work.
• Real-time reader reactions as comments throught the entire novel.
• Plot and details' consistency tracking.
• Objective feedback and constructive critcism.
• Suggestions on story structure and pacing fixes.
• Dialogue evaluations.
• POV consistency tracking
• Worldbuilding and magic systems reviews.
• Observations on characters, their arcs, and motivation, to ensure likeable characters and a good story to follow.
• Checking on plot consistency.
• Paragraphs and sentences rearragement and restructure if needed.
• Very detailed recap at the end with what I think of the novel, its strong suits, it weaknesses, possible overarching reworks, and my overall thoughts on plot, pacing, dialogue, and characters.
• Optional (Additional cost) in depth questionary I made for my own novel answered after each of your chapters. I'm talking about approx. 55 questions to cover all possible topics.
• Optional (Additional cost) in depth questionary I made for my own novel answered after the book ends. It summarizes everything into questions that easily let you know the overal structure of the novel.
• Optional (Additional cost) Book Cover design ideas and sketches if you're interested.
• Discounted revision round if you needed a complete overhaul.
• Optional (Additional cost) plot coaching session one-on-one via call (discord) where we can discuss your whole novel and I would answer any question you have. You can also hire me for this if you're still brainstorming your novel.
• Discounts on bigger novels. As a writer who was a giant novel myself, I know how difficult it is to get a beta reader who want to read a large novel, and I know how expensive an editor can be. So I offer discounts for works over 200K words.
What I do NOT offer?
• Spell checking and grammar fixes, unless it's easy to spot and fix. That's more the job of a line editor.
What are the benefits of hiring me over someone else?
• Affordable and negotiable prices. You'll get the best value for your money, and I can accomodate to your budget.
• A step between developmental editing and beta reading, that way you dont pay for both services, but just a combination of them.
• Unlike those who like to change the story to their liking, I'll maintain your story the way you wrote it. I just suggest changes and make comments based on what you wrote and not what I would like to read, maintaiming your creative vision.
• Completely honest and straight-forward criticism. I will do what I can to make your novel the best it can be.
The first ~1000 words are FREE! So you get a sense of what you'll receive.
What I use for working?
• I prefer using Google Docs as it's easier to make comments there and you can access to them at any time. I can use word as well if not.
Send me a DM with your blurb and your word count to give you the detailed pricing list :D
IMPORTANT NOTE: I do NOT use any form of AI and I'm 200% against the use of AI in creative spaces. This means that I will NOT accept any work made by AI and I reserve my right to cancel and not refund the money if the book was AI generated.
