CRITIQUE/EDITING SERVICES 

Depending on your project, I can do:

• high-leveledit, which will look at items like story structure, point of view, opening/hook, black moment, character arcs, writer's voice, scene structure, etc. This will give you an overall feel for what works in your story and what doesn't.
• line-edit, which will look at all of the above items, plus: sentence structure, dialogue tags, repetitive words, passive sentences, cliches. This is the line-by-line edit of your manuscript and will have lots of nit-picky things included.

I use MS Word and the Track Changes feature to make comments. The finished project looks like this:

And you'll also get a summary at the end of the document:

WARNING: This was a piece of fan-fiction I wrote many years ago and recently self-critiqued. The writing is horrible and not representative of how I write now. :) 

If you would like to submit a sample (up to 2,500 words), of your writing, I will critique it for free so you can see if we'd work together well.
