Does your novel involve vast magical landscapes sprawling across multiple continents? Or does your space hero fly using faster-than-light travel across the galaxy? Or maybe your imaginary universe fits inside the terrarium on your desk.
No matter how you scale your story, it is important to make sure that you keep track of every detail, whether it makes it into the final draft or not. Your readers will ask questions as they move through your story. It is important that the details of your story have internal consistency, seem believable, and make sense within the context of the plot. Whether you have a fully fleshed epic universe, or are just beginning to outline your story, I can help by offering a friendly critique to point out strengths and weaknesses, look for gaps in logic, or discuss how the rules of the universe will positively or negatively impact the characters as they move around.
This service is already included in the developmental edit or critique package, but I can also offer it as a standalone if you are just starting out. If you have worked out the basics of your magic system or unique science model, but have specific questions, I offer an inexpensive option where I can read through and analyze your notes or outline and help point you in the right direction as you begins writing your novel This stand alone option works best if you include a short letter along with a brief description and word count of your notes, outline, maps, etc. explaining your goals and questions, so that I can customize my response to your specific needs. I can give a quote based on the length and scope of your work, and then you can decide if you would like to proceed or wait until you are ready for a developmental edit or line edit.
