A developmental edit or analysis will include examination of major craft aspects of the work, including but not limited to plot structure, story, characterization, conflicts and resolutions. Again, recommendations will be thorough and specific. Sue will also attempt to answer any question a writer poses about his or her work. She will frequently include copyediting, grammar and other word use tips, but she does not offer copyediting services.

All payments must be made in advance, preferably via PayPal.

Both electronic and hardcopy submissions are accepted. If the client wants the hardcopy returned, s/he is responsible for mailing or shipping charges.
