Developmental Editing for All Stories
Let's get writing.
I'm Ty Love. I spent a decade inside top publishing working on 18 New York Times bestsellers, and now I spend my days the way I like best: immersed in new worlds with the authors building them, exploring the far future, the deep magick, or big new ideas. I'm honest about what isn't working and loud about what is, because I believe writing a book is exciting; and editing it should be too.

Sound familiar?
You've revised this draft so many times, you can't tell if you're making it better or just moving things around.
Your beta readers love it. You suspect they're being nice.
You have a lovely world you've built—and you're worried you might be force feeding it all a little too fast.
You're this close to querying, and you don't want to waste your shot with agents.
If any of these are you, don't worry—you're in the right place, and among good company.
