I'm searching for a skilled editor to help me revise and improve my science fiction novel. It's a substantive editing task, focusing on major elements of the story. Key Tasks: - Enhance Character Development: Ensure characters are engaging, consistent and well-developed throughout the story. - Improved World-Building: Help me make my fictional world more immersive, realistic and logically consistent. - Refine Plot Pacing: Ensure that the plot moves in a compelling and well-paced way, keeping readers engaged. This job requires a deep understanding of science fiction storytelling, its conventions, and the ability to help me bring my characters and world to life.

A background in editing science fiction novels would be a huge plus.

As a seasoned copy editor with years of experience in the New York publishing industry, I bring a unique set of skills to the table that align perfectly with your needs. I've worked across a myriad of genres, including science fiction, and my meticulousness combined with a keen eye for detail never fails to elevate my clients' work. My past clients have commended my ability to enhance their narratives without diluting their original voice - a skill that is essential in this substantive editing engagement. In addition to being an effective line-editor, I excel at delivering constructive and actionable feedback. Characters and world-building are pivotal aspects of any great novel, and here my storytelling background equips me to help you bring them vividly to life. I'll make sure your characters are authentic, consistent, and intriguing throughout the narrative while assisting in refining and enhancing your fictional world so it becomes undeniably captivating. Beyond just improving pacing, I strive to keep readers engaged from start to finish. Drawing from my experience in copy directing, a crucial aspect of plot editing becomes second nature to me; I instinctively understand how elements of a story should unfold. By working together, we will create a manuscript that meets all your goals and dazzles your readers. Give me the opportunity, and we'll conduct a masterful overhaul together! regards sandra

Hey there! What specific aspects of character development do you feel need the most improvement in your novel? Can you provide more details about the fictional world you've created and areas where you think it could be strengthened? Are there any particular pacing issues you've identified in your plot that you'd like the editor to focus on addressing? Do you have any specific goals or expectations for the revisions and improvements you want to see in your novel after the editing process?

Hi! I just checked your project of ghostwriting your Novel. If you have dreamed of self-publishing your novel or see your ideas put into words, your novel can still see the light of day. I can certainly help you with writing a novel with an informative description, an enticing title, and engaging content. Based on the geographical and social settings of the story, I will start with writing the Logline and building the treatment that will follow developing the characterization by defining the hero/heroine and their goals/motives, along with highlighting the main antagonist with his/her goals/motives. This all will go into the Plot and Outline to draft the first scene of the screenplay. And the story will follow the structure till we reach the ending which can be a happy ending where the hero/heroine wins, a tragic ending where the hero/heroine loses, an unexpected ending, etc. I am a professional writer and have written/edited more than 50+ novels, stories, and screenplays on different genres, niches and topics. Message me over the chat to discuss it further. Regards, Arwa

As an experienced editor with a broad range of skills, I believe I have the expertise to elevate your science fiction novel to the next level. While my academic background is rooted in computer science and business administration, my years working on various projects have honed my editing skills across myriad subjects. Moreover, I am well-acquainted with all the major academic writing styles applicable to your project. Science fiction is more than a genre; it's a fascinating blend of advanced concepts, thoughtful characterizations, and imaginative world-building. My eclectic knowledge base helps me grasp complex ideas quickly and contribute meaningfully to their development. This proves particularly valuable when it comes to character consistency and world logic - two areas I understand are crucial to creating a compelling science fiction narrative.
