Developmental Editing

Chapter by chapter, scene by scene, a developmental edit will help you slim down a bloated manuscript, provide clarity, structure, and organization where needed — and help bring the overall purpose of your story (fiction) or content (nonfiction) to the forefront.

Beta Reading

When you’re ready to present yourself to the world as a professional author, you’ll understand why our Beyond Beta Reading™ Package is so popular. We commit to your work the moment your manuscript lands in our inbox.

Productivity Coaching for Writers

Do you need help brainstorming or hashing out a sticky plotline in your novel? Is the motivation to finish your book starting to wane? Are you feeling unclear about your writing career’s direction, or are you looking for new methods to help you achieve a satisfying work-life balance? 

With a one-on-one consultation, Dr. Anita Holzhausen can help you set realistic goals and create an actionable plan that can help you accomplish what you’ve set out to do.

We certainly will.

Developmental Editing

Developmental editing, also referred to as content or structural editing, involves in-depth, intense, bone-deep critiquing of your manuscript. It is the most time-intensive, intricate service that we offer, and we put everything we have into it in order to highlight the absolute best in your draft.
