Experience
Project Editor Developmental Editor Manuscript Evaluator
Mar 2019 — Present
Project editing helps authors make their stories and author voices shine! It involves deep line-by-line editing that removes repetition, corrects verb tenses, restructures sentences, addresses passive voice, separates one character\'s dialogue from another\'s action beat or monologue, notes lingering content concerns, and conducts a thorough copyedit—all while guarding the author\'s voice. It also involves setting up a style sheet, writing a chapter-by-chapter synopsis, and developing a character sheet, which helps ensure continuity through the editing process. Developmental editing involves digging in deep to the content and offering recommendations to develop, restructure, refine, and clarify the content.
