EDITORIAL SERVICES
Hey there, I’m Swati Teerdhala. I’m a published author (The Tiger at Midnight trilogy, HarperCollins), a writing mentor for over 4 years (PitchWars, AuthorMentorMatch), and have worked on numerous manuscripts and queries. My strengths lie in developmental edits and helping hone in on the core of your story. If you’re looking for a service or help that isn’t on this list, please still feel free to reach out!
What I work on:
Young Adult, Middle Grade, Adult fiction

DEVELOPMENTAL PACKAGES
One Hour Story Conception
Need someone to bounce your idea off of for an hour? I offer a single brainstorming session for character, plot, narrative arc/structure, etc. for books in their early stage. I will set up an individual session online, and read up to 20 pages before the session.
Pricing: Based on scope/needs for each individual writer
Book Consultation
Looking for a more in-depth partnership on your book? I’ll help you start, finish, or revise your book based on your timeline. I’ll provide deadlines, monthly 1:1 video chats to track progress, and weekly check-ins.
Because the needs can be so variable on this, a brief phone call consultation will be necessary, just to make sure we’re both aligned on goals and I am the best fit for your needs.
Pricing: Based on scope/needs for each individual writer
