Editing Services

Developmental editing is a great way to make sure you have a strong story readers will love. It’s the most in-depth type of editing, addressing problems at the story structure level. What does this mean? You’ll get feedback about things like character development, plot, pacing, and scene structure.

The Big Picture

I read and evaluate your manuscript for the three main elements of every great story (character, plot, and setting) and the five key scenes.

    About Natalie

    I’ve been obsessed with books for as long as I can remember. Helping authors create the best possible books is what I love to do. When I’m not editing, you can find me writing fantasy romance books, reading, or walking my two dogs.

    At Tattooed Tree Book Editing, we love helping authors create the best version of their stories. We focus on developmental editing, which means looking at your book at the story level. Editing can be expensive, so we offer packages to accommodate a range of budgets.

    Every great book needs an editor.

    Let us be yours.
