Epic Sci-Fi Manuscript Overhaul
Budget: $250 – $750 USD
I have a completed fantasy–science-fiction manuscript written in first person that already carries the skeleton of a sweeping, epic adventure. What it still lacks is the sharp edge of fully realised characters, a tighter plot spine, and the kind of immersive world-building that leaves readers breathless. My goal is a version that feels effortlessly grand in tone and polished enough to slide straight onto an agent’s desk.
Here’s what I need from you: dive deep into the current draft, keep the heart of the story beating, but reshape everything around it where necessary. Strengthen character motivations and arcs, repair or redesign plot beats for smoother pacing, and expand the lore so every location, culture and piece of tech feels tangible. All rewrites must preserve (or heighten) that majestic, larger-than-life atmosphere I’m aiming for, while staying within the original first-person viewpoint unless you can justify a change that truly serves the story.
Deliverables:
• A fully rewritten, line-edited manuscript in Word (Track Changes + clean copy).
• An accompanying editorial memo outlining structural changes, world-building additions, and any lingering issues to watch.
• Consistent formatting, zero grammatical errors, and prose ready for submission to publishers.
If you thrive on sculpting epic speculative fiction and can balance big-picture narrative architecture with sentence-level precision, let’s talk.
