🌙 Editing & Story Development with Nina Alvarez

For writers who want clarity, voice, and soul in their work.

My work isn’t just about fixing sentences.

It’s about helping you step into the version of yourself who can write the book you’re meant to write—with confidence, emotional coherence, and a clear creative path forward.

I use a blend of literary craft, structural mapping, and intuitive insight to help you deepen your voice and shape your manuscript into its strongest form.

Below are the current offerings for 2025.

Choose what meets you where you are on your writing journey.

⭐ THE ENTRY PORTAL

❖ 30-Page Diagnostic

$650

A deep, intuitive map of your book’s true shape.

If you’re unsure where your book is headed—or what it is—this is your portal.

In the first 30 pages, I can see almost everything: the emotional core, the emergent structure, the voice you’re reaching toward, the places where the draft is speaking clearly and the places where it’s asking for deeper attention.

This is a potent, focused editorial reading that gives you clarity, direction, and momentum.

You’ll receive:

  • A close editorial read of your first 30 pages

  • Margin notes on voice, pacing, clarity, and craft

  • A structural map of what the manuscript is building

  • A clear analysis of strengths, gaps, and next steps

  • A comprehensive editorial letter

I read deeply, with both technical precision and intuitive insight, and translate what I see into a clear path forward.

If you need to understand what your book is wants to be—this is where you begin.

🌿 My Editorial Philosophy

I believe that writing is both craft and revelation.

A manuscript is an ecosystem—alive, shapeshifting, and waiting to become its fullest expression.

My role is to help you:

  • see your work clearly

  • strengthen its structure

  • deepen its emotional truth

  • and step into your voice with confidence

I’m here to help you write something that feels true—to you, to your story, to your voice.
