Be A Developmental Editor For Your Science Fiction Or Fantasy Story

About:

Hello, I’m Alya, a full-time fiction editor and writer. I also collaborate on children’s books, work on my poetry collection and write articles for aspiring writers.

I have a background in tech and game development, and I am an avid reader of speculative fiction. I worked with many writers of “what if?” genres – science fiction, fantasy, weird fiction, magic realism, etc. – helping them to create strong, compelling work.

Please contact me before placing an order.

Developmental editing gig includes:

1. An editorial report, featuring:

• general evaluation of your manuscript;
• input on structure, pacing, characters and dialogue;
• comments on world creation helping you to build a unique and immersive world versus a generic fantasy kingdom / inhabited galaxy;
• feedback on style and clarity.
  
  

2. Your manuscript with in-line comments and specific suggestions.

I specialize in short-form narratives, though sometimes I accept longer manuscripts as well. If your project is bigger than this gig, please contact me.

This gig does not include proofreading. Though I may occasionally correct grammar or spelling, I focus on big-picture issues and the mechanics of the story.
