Hello, friends! I’m Megan!

I’m a lover of tea obsessed with autumn days in my Spare Oom with a book in my lap and the windows wide open (if only it were always autumn, right?). When I’m not chasing my hobbit son around the house, I’m dreaming about stories of mystery and magic and sneaking bites of cookie dough from my stash in the freezer. My husband, son, and I live in a cottage in the midst of a busy city where we dream of someday owning a mini-farm.

Three-Chapter Critique

 

A strong opening to any book can effectively hook your reader for the entirety of the story. This edit will evaluate your first three chapters for structure, characterization, worldbuilding, conflict, and the quality of your prose, and will provide ideas for how to improve areas of weakness.

COPYEDITING

 

Copyediting focuses on the nitty-gritty of your story. This edit ensures consistency in punctuation, capitalization, spelling, etc., corrects incorrect usage of words, flags inaccuracies or inconsistencies, reviews word choices, supplies suggested revisions for wordy, unclear, and redundant writing, and improves readability as able.

PROOFREADING

 

This edit is the most technical and is the final chance to catch improper grammar, typos, misspelled words, and punctuation. It should only be performed after all other rounds of edits are completed since this edit is the finishing touch before being sent to an an agent/publisher or self-publishing platform.
