​

Developmental Editing

A developmental editor looks at your story on a big picture level. It evaluates and gives feedback on your piece's content and structure. A developmental edit includes an outline of your piece.

Proofreading

A proofreader checks your completed document for basic mechanical correctness of the English language: grammar, spelling, punctuation, typos and consistency.

​

Ghostwriting

A ghostwriter writes a document under your name and in your voice, with credit to the ghostwriter being negotiable. Ghostwriting may involve extensive interviewing. 

Copy Editing

A copy editor checks your writing for the correctness of structure, consistency, tone, and readability as well as the basic edits of grammar, spelling, punctuation and typos.

​

Editorial Assessment

A editorial assessment checks for character motivations, a sound plot, tension, engaging themes, readability and marketability. It evaluates your story's strengths and weaknesses, and provides a revision plan. 

Book Coaching

A book coach provides consistent accountability, a sounding board, suggestions on how to overcome writer's block and advice on storytelling and publishing to help you complete your writing project.

What My Clients Say

Garrison Hazen, Master's program candidate

Isabella was very efficient. After she had looked over my rough draft, she laid out everything clearly and explained her reasoning and suggestions with great care and understanding. Isabella made me feel I am capable of writing well even though there were things to work on. All my edits were presented in a digestible way. I can say with great confidence that Isabella is a very capable writing coach that is worth reaching out to.
"Fantastic thesis! This is a very accomplished work. I spent a lot of time absorbed in the story itself, which has a good sense of pacing and narrative movement. Isabella has a fine, fine sense of how to balance story matter and story propulsion. she gives beautiful descriptions when it's warranted. The other thing I love is how she knows how to create interest and build tension and curiosity for her reader. This is such a gift related to her native talents and instincts. There's a shapeliness to her stories that I really admire too—by this I mean they feel well-tuned, well-structured architecturally, with a direction and a change and that wonderful "inevitable yet surprising" feeling at the end. I loved this work! A genuine pleasure to read."
