✨ Developmental Edits for Romantasy Novels ✨
Limited Time Offer – $500 USD for First 5 Clients Only!
Do you have a complete romantasy novel between 60,000 and 100,000 words? Want professional, in-depth feedback to help you shape your story into the book of your dreams? For a limited time, I’m offering full developmental edits at a special price of $500 USD — available to just 5 writers in exchange for feedback on the service.
This is a chance to work 1:1 with an editor who is deeply passionate about fantasy, storytelling, and helping authors level up — at a fraction of the usual cost.
🖤 What Are Developmental Edits?
Developmental editing is all about the big picture. It’s not about fixing grammar or polishing sentences — it's about strengthening your story at its core.
I’ll help you examine your manuscript’s:
Worldbuilding and magic system cohesion
Character arcs and motivations
Romantic tension and payoff
Plot structure and pacing
Theme integration and emotional resonance
Genre expectations and reader satisfaction
You'll receive an in-depth editorial letter that highlights your strengths, pinpoints your story’s challenges, and gives you concrete, actionable feedback for revision. I may also include comments in the manuscript to guide specific scenes or moments.
What this service is not:
❌ Copyediting or proofreading
❌ Line edits (sentence-level rewrites)
❌ A guarantee of publishing success
It’s story therapy for your novel — you still have to implement the changes and do the work. 💫
📖 What is a Romantasy Novel?
Romantasy = Romance + Fantasy. Think lush magical worlds and a central romance that matters just as much — or more than — the external plot.
If your story features a romantic relationship as a key emotional thread — woven into a magical, mythical, or secondary-world setting — you’re in the right place.

✅ Be a complete draft (no partials, sorry!)

Hi, I’m Mary— a developmental editor with a sharp editorial eye, a deep love of storytelling, and a science-informed approach to creativity.
My background is in writing and editing non-fiction: I’ve worked on grant applications, scientific research papers, science communication pieces, and public-facing presentations. I bring that precision, curiosity, and analytical depth into my work with fiction — especially fantasy.
