Make your book more effective
Many writers struggle with three problems:
- Getting their book to the right length
- Organizing complex information
- Fears that their reader won't be able to follow their line of reasoning
But you don’t have to do this alone! I can help your book reach its full potential. As a developmental editor for writers, I can reorganize every chapter, section and paragraph of your book to make sure it has the most impact.Â

I know that many people don’t really understand what a developmental editor for writers does. (So you’re NOT just a glorified word processor?) But actually, for anyone who has written more than a high school essay on how they spent their summer vacation, it’s quite easy to understand. In short: a developmental editor is for writers who are concerned about making their book’s foundations (the length, table of contents, and the internal organization of chapters) more effective.Â
Most texts are complex. A good book is not just a good book because the rules of spelling and grammar are correctly applied. And even a great concept or theme does not necessarily make for a great book. If you’re passionate about a topic, I can safely assume that you’ve been in a position where you WANTED to enjoy a book on that topic, but the book made that very difficult for you. The book probably needed developmental editing.
Don’t let yours become one of those books that is hard to enjoy because of its organization and structure. With my help as your online editor for writers, you can be confident that your book does what you want it to do.Â
I get it – it's hard to get the foundations right
Most writers I’ve worked with have spent a lot of work collecting their knowledge and pouring it into a book. After all this effort, however, they still feel that something isn’t right. But as they work from their own knowledge, it’s hard for them to figure out how to communicate their wisdom better to their reader.Â
That’s where a developmental book editor comes in. As a developmental editor for writers, I’ve helped many authors lift their books to the next level, and helped them realize their book’s potential. In short: I’ve helped them make sure that the shape of their book supports its purpose.Â
And I’d love to help you do the same! So schedule a meeting now to discuss your project.Â

With help, you can feel confident about your book's structure
Yes, it is absolutely possible to feel confident about how your book is structured. I’ve seen it time and again with the authors I’ve worked with!
The thing, is, though, that we all have this image of the perfect author in our heads. This author works by themselves and every sentence they type is instant gold. But let me tell you a secret: just because you’re not like that, doesn’t mean you’re not a great author. What’s more: this mythical author doesn’t exist! Every single book you’ve read and loved has been worked on by more than one book editor.Â
As an author, you’ll be blind to many of the ways in which you make it hard for your reader to follow your logic. But you don’t have to do it alone! That’s what a developmental book editor is all about.
So let’s meet and discuss how I can help you make your book reach its potential! As your online editor, I’m here to help.Â
