Fantasy Novel Developmental Editor and rewriter Needed

I have an 86,000-word epic-fantasy manuscript ready for a full developmental edit, and my top priority is tightening the plot structure. I’m looking for fresh, professional eyes that can drill into the overall arc, flag any lapses in logic, and smooth out pacing from start to finish. Key focal points • Plot coherence & consistency – I want every beat to flow naturally, with no dangling threads or accidental contradictions. • Pacing – help me balance action, dialogue, and exposition so tension never sags. • Critical scenes – the climax and ending must land with maximum impact; please scrutinize these sections especially hard. Preferred workflow You’ll receive the Word document and can use Track Changes or an equivalent tool for in-line comments. In addition, I’d appreciate a separate editorial letter that summarizes high-level issues and concrete revision suggestions. Deliverables • Marked-up manuscript with detailed margin notes • Editorial letter highlighting structural strengths, weaknesses, and actionable fixes • Optional quick call or Q&A document to clarify major notes (if needed) If you have proven experience guiding fantasy authors through structural rewrites—and enjoy untangling complex storylines—I’d love to hear how you’d approach this project and an estimated timeline for completion.
