Editing

“I couldn’t be happier with Donaleen’s level of commitment and dedication to my book “Suit on the Run”. She understood my story and brought clarity to my vision.”

Getting your words onto the page is a huge achievement, but it is only the beginning.

As your editor, I can help you shape and hone your work so that it’s the very best it can be. So that you are part of that less than one percent of writers submitting book proposals and manuscripts to publishing houses, who will actually get published. Down with feeble premises, ponderous prose, and non sequiturs! Dangling participles, split infinitives, and mixed metaphors be gone!

And for that unforgiving craft of screenwriting, a story editor is a not a luxury, it’s a necessity. If you get on the wrong track, it can cost you hours of time that you’ll never get back. And if you get too attached to scenes that don’t move your story forward, a gruesome case of writer’s block can ensue. Having reviewed thousands of scripts, I’ve seen all of the mistakes and then some. I can help you spot yours and do something about them before disaster strikes!

Send me an email now. With me as your nonjudgmental, ever-supportive yet exacting editor, we’ll make your project sing!

“Donaleen is the third story editor I’ve tried, and she is by far the best. I wouldn’t trade her for the world!”
