I have a complete manuscript that now needs a deep structural edit—from the opening hook right through to the closing scene. My priority is to see the big-picture issues clearly laid out and resolved so the final draft reads with tight logic, believable progression, and the right emotional rhythm.
Here is what I would like in the finished service:
• An editorial report that walks me through the manuscript’s overall flow, identifying any plot or narrative gaps, sections that drag, and scenes that may be missing or misplaced.
• Inline comments or tracked-change notes that pinpoint specific moments where re-ordering, trimming, or expansion will strengthen the pacing and character development.
• A brief follow-up conversation (written or video) so I can ask questions and clarify next steps before revising.
Because I have not locked the word count or even declared the genre publicly yet, please mention in your proposal the length you feel comfortable tackling and any particular genres you specialise in. Tools such as Microsoft Word or Google Docs with commenting ability are fine—use whatever lets you give clear, actionable feedback.
If you have experience improving plot coherence, tightening pacing, or drawing more vivid character arcs, show me a sample of similar work you have handled. I will choose the editor whose feedback style feels constructive, honest, and solution-oriented.
