Awesome Developmental Editor! She totally understood what I was going for, and offered literally hundreds of suggestions, ranging from one-word connotations being not quite right (“wailing” vs “crying”), to how to rework a scene slightly for more impact, to a couple of major section overhaul suggestions.

Wonderful copy editor! Jamie brought so much more than a basic copy edit to the project. She added richness and depth to the scenes by suggesting numerous extra beats, improved phrases, finding mistakes in the setting description where I’d only half-changed-over scenery, and even suggested extra dialogue. Highly recommended!
