I will be the developmental editor for your fantasy story

Through my 17+ years experience of reading every fantasy series I can get my hands on, I have noticed quite a few thematic elements that are crucial to any story. These themes are even more important to address when writing a fantasy novel, because you are creating the entire world. I will help you fully develop your plot, tone, character arcs, magical systems, history/lore, worldbuilding, consistency, and overall pacing of your story. I believe the question of why a character does a specific action is more important than the action taken itself. I will ask you why on every aspect of your story, and then help you weave the answers more naturally into the tapestry of your work. What drives your characters? What fuels the magical systems? What is keeping your readers invested in the story? Where is the mystery in the foreshadowing? What is the message you are really trying to convey through the dialogue? With this type of questioning I will help you create the best fantasy experience for your readers. I will write notes, comments, and questions throughout your manuscript, as well as a one page write up at the end with my final thoughts and suggestions.
