Hi writers and editors!

I’m Lu, a freelance editor (and data scientist by day) who geeks out over character arcs, pacing fixes, and sentences that just hit the spot. This blog is for:

Breaking down editing techniques (from line edits to big-picture rewrites)

Celebrating fanworks and original fiction—because yes, I will happily analyse your WIP’s lore consistency and your blorbos/OCs' characterisation

Sharing my own writing struggles—I’m drafting a sci-fantasy and a historical novel, so I feel your pain

What to expect: ✅ Before/after edits (with permission!) ✅ Rants about common manuscript pitfalls ✅ Occasional memes about the writing process

Want help? Ask me anything—or submit a snippet for a free mini-critique!

(Also accepting prompts like: “How would you edit [famous book’s] opening?” or “Fix this terrible sentence I wrote at 3 AM.”)

Let’s make words better together. 💻✨
