Writing romance is a calling. But to make a living from it, you must stand out.
While every author's path is different, the one thing all successful career writers share is a hunger for more. Together, we will explore your strengths, set your goals, challenge your mindset, and craft your storytelling voice into something memorable.
Whether you're self-publishing or taking a more traditional route, a story consultation with a Developmental Editor can save you time, money, and sanity.
I specialize in storysmithing romantic fiction, and I am passionate about helping writers like you do what you love for a living.
A 1-hour chat can mean the difference between a lengthy, exhausting re-write and a swift, gratifying speed draft. Or a full request from a house editor instead of a rejected proposal that went right to the slush pile.
My rate is $125 for the hour, and I can usually get you on the calendar within two weeks.
Not sure I'm the right fit for your writing and learning style? Trust, a comfortable rapport, and a sense of connection are essential for a healthy editor/writer relationship. I offer self-service options and also work one-on-one with romance writers. Take a peek at the spirit of what I do below.
I'm a seasoned, comprehensive editor—I have done it all, from acquisitions to story to copy—but I am most on fire about educating and empowering romance authors.
When it comes to sharpening your skills as a writer, there will never be a better time than now. Every time you invest in yourself and in doing what you love, your joy finds its way into the world. Whether you're a published author or just starting out, tapping into the heart of your work will benefit not just yourself, but all the friends, family, and communities of readers who need your unique voice. Now is your time.
You only get one chance to make a first impression. Make it count.

Can’t say enough good things about editor @davincikittie! Kickass insight & suggestions. #HireHer #EditingSkillz

Sue is my developmental editor. DE is basically the same kind of editor as my acquiring editor at a traditional publishing house. I chose Sue because her specialty is romance and my novellas tend to lean that direction. [...] She’s extremely helpful.
