Seeking referrals again to people you trust!
Iβm currently looking for a developmental editor with experience in the psychology / mental health space to conduct a manuscript evaluation (high-level developmental review) for a book project.
Project details:
Nonfiction book on narcissism
Author is an MD, but it's not written academically or medically- more speaks to the psychology of narcissism.
Approx. 90,000 words
Likely path: self-publishing or hybrid publishing
The author has received initial feedback from hybrid publishers on some things to fix, some of which he agrees with and some he is unsure about, and is seeking an independent, neutral expert outside opinion before deciding whether to move forward with full developmental editing either on his own or with a publisher.
At this stage, we are not looking for line editing, copyediting, or proofreading.
Weβre specifically seeking:
Big-picture structural and positioning feedback
Assessment of clarity, audience alignment, and market readiness
Identification of strengths, gaps, or red flags typically addressed in a manuscript evaluation
Guidance on whether deeper developmental work is warranted
If this is in your wheelhouse, please send me a DM with:
-Your relevant experience (especially in psychology or mental health publishing)
-Estimated cost range for a manuscript evaluation of this length
-Typical turnaround time
Thank you in advance! Tag your people, or DM me directly if this is you.
