Taking your manuscript to the next level

Innovative editorial solutions to help your story thrive. Our expert team is ready to partner with you to achieve extraordinary results.

Let's Work Together

Our Expertise

01.

Manuscript Assessment

A comprehensive structural analysis of your draft—often called a manuscript critique. Ideal for authors who want clear direction before self-publishing or moving into a full edit.

02.

Developmental editing

Big-picture book editing focused on structure, pacing, character development, and emotional payoff. Best for manuscripts that feel promising but aren’t yet ready to publish.

03.

Line Editing

Sentence-level editing that improves clarity, rhythm, and tone. Best for self-publishing authors whose story works but whose writing needs refinement.

04.

Copyediting

A precise edit for grammar, consistency, and technical clarity. Best for manuscripts preparing for self-publication and final formatting.

05.

Multilingual Editing / U.S. Localization

English-language editing for multilingual authors writing for the U.S. market (American English localization). Best for drafts that need U.S.-native fluency without losing the author’s voice.

Our Philosophy

Intellectual depth
for the passionate.

We are built on the belief that great stories are uncovered through precision, insight, and honest collaboration. 

Every manuscript already contains its strongest version somewhere inside it. Our job is to understand what’s working, identify what’s getting in the way, and help the story become what it was always trying to be. 

We approach editing as both craft and psychology: understanding how readers experience tension, character, and momentum, and shaping the text so that every reader walks away connecting with your work.

What Authors Say

“Rozi completely understood the kind of romance I was trying to write. She helped me strengthen my female protagonist so her choices actually drove the story, not just the relationship. The developmental edit clarified the emotional arc, sharpened the romantic tension, and made the book feel intentional and confident. I walked away with a stronger manuscript and a main character I’m genuinely proud of. ”

Sarah M. — Fantasy Romance Author

“Rozi’s line edit was a total game-changer for me. As a first-time self-publishing author and was nervous about losing my voice, but her feedback actually made my writing clearer and stronger. She helped me fix pacing and structure issues I couldn’t see on my own, and my manuscript finally reads the way I hoped it would. Highly recommend working with her and The Developmental."

Julia c. — Romantasy author

“Working with Rozi at The Developmental was an absolute pleasure! Not only was she professional, detail-oriented, and thorough, but she also helped me improve my manuscript's English as it’s not my first language. Somehow, she managed to enhance clarity and correctness while completely preserving my own style and the flow of my writing as well which is amazing. I’m so grateful for her help and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a skilled and thoughtful copy editor who is also able to keep your unique style and flow intact.”

Hailey V. — Romance author

“I'm so glad I got to work with Rozi. Aside from the fact that she's a true professional who knows what she's doing, she delivers feedback in a clear and respectful manner. She provides explanations for her edits and suggestions, and her explanations teach you how to improve your current project and your future work. She's thorough and accurate. I definitely recommend working with her. I know I will work with her again.”
