Developmental Editing

Polishing a manuscript can be a big job. I'll do the heavy lifting for you, so you can focus on all the other important things in your life.

Here's what happens

1

We do an evaluation.

I'll read the whole manuscript to identify potential improvements to structure, flow, tone and other high-level issues. Together, we'll make a plan to revise.

2

I revise.

I'll do the writing, taking care to preserve your unique voice. I'll track all the changes and make notes, so you can see exactly what I've done and why.

3

We talk.

When I complete a section of the revisions, we'll get on the phone to talk through them. You'll have plenty of opportunities to see the results and provide feedback.

What you really get

You know, aside from a polished manuscript.

If you’re thinking of working with Madison, do it! She’s easy to talk to and non-judgmental, and her calming demeanor made the process of creating a book much easier.

Time

Revisions are often the most time-consuming part of a book project. Delegating them to a trusted expert means you get countless hours of your life back.

Quality

I know exactly what it takes to create a premium experience for the reader, where they get so absorbed in the content that they never notice the mechanics. That's what I can do for your manuscript.

Speed

It's easy for revisions to drag on forever, but I won't let us get bogged down. By creating structure around the process, I'll keep it moving forward at a steady pace until your manuscript crosses the finish line.

Every manuscript is different — some need just a few tweaks, while others need much more extensive work. I'll provide a custom quote after the Manuscript Evaluation is complete, at which point you can decide whether you'd like to move forward.

"What if I'd rather do the writing myself?"

No problem! I also offer book coaching, as well as several other options for working with me.
