Developmental Editing
Taking a detailed analysis and proceeding through your book together, I will help you to redraft your manuscript to ensure
all the threads in the storyline are satisfied by the end of the story. I’ll look at continuity, character development, to ensure
there is consistency throughout. I can give you a general overview or detailed feedback on your piece. Large projects can be
priced individually. Otherwise, I’ll look at a chapter of your MS free, and give you directional feedback. Then you can decide
if you’d like to take it further.

Ghost Writer
Living Underwater is a ghost project I can tell you about because my name is on the cover, “as told to”.
Writing for Kati Lepisto, a super model who had a stroke at 20 and tells her story of overcoming the misery and challenge
of living as a quadriplegic, was an inspiration and a joy. You can find her book at Amazon.
When I do a ghost project, I spend quality time with the “author” — face to face and on-line — where we develop a
relationship that enables the “author’s voice” to shine through the writing. I take the idea, be it a fiction or a memoir, and
expand, always giving a clear time frame and content summary, chapter by chapter, to avoid misunderstandings or
disappointment.
Ghost projects vary in cost but on average are about £25,ooo.oo or US equivalent + expenses per MS.
