World Building - It's What I Do .

Three decades of world-building expertise, condensed into one deep-dive audit.
Let’s build a world your readers will never want to leave.

01.

Structural Logic Audit.

I deep-dive into your magic systems and geography to ensure every gear turns in sync. If your world has rules, I’ll make sure they aren’t accidentally broken by page 50.

02.

Narrative Continuity Map

Consistency is the anchor of immersion. I track travel times, moon phases, and alliances so your readers stay lost in the story, not the plot holes.

03.

Sensory World-Building Polish

A world should feel lived-in. I help you layer the cultural quirks and atmospheric details that turn a generic setting into an unforgettable, immersive experience.

Who I Am .

🎲✨I’m Andy, a Birmingham-based freelance editor dedicated to helping authors build bulletproof stories. As a disabled professional and a committed LGBTQIA+ accomplice (not just an ally!), I am incredibly proud to work with diverse authors and stories that reflect the full spectrum of the human experience. 🌈♿
Whether you’re crafting a sprawling space opera or a whimsical children’s book, I’m here to ensure your world-building is as solid as your plot. With decades of reading experience, a veteran D&D Dungeon Master’s eye for lore, and a background in community theatre, I specialize in "stress-testing" universes. I don't just fix commas; I audit your "World-Bible" to make sure your magic systems, alien mechanics, and character arcs hold up to the toughest reader scrutiny.
When I’m not deep-diving into manuscripts, you can find me volunteering at Dragon Con, getting lost in my extensive home library, or helping out with local stage productions. Ready to roll for initiative on your next draft? Let’s make sure your readers get lost in your story, not your plot holes. 📚🛠️

A Comprehensive World Bible

A structured, searchable wiki for your world, filled with the magic, power, and tech systems, chronology, characters, social and cultural logic, locations, maps, and environment details.

The Cost

All magic and power comes at a cost. How does your world define that?

The World

Are your locations logical and consistent? Do the biomes make sense?

The Vibe Check

Do things line up across the areas? Does a paranormal fog always appear purple? Is the sky always green?

The World-Builder's Bible Audit

The "Spark" Consult

Entry/Introduction level package. This is a 1 hour intense deep dive call. Send me your world-building notes (up to 5,000 words) for review and we'll spend the call poking holes, asking what-if questions, and identifying logic gaps.

The "Standard" Audit

A comprehensive read-through of the manuscript specifically for lore, consistency, and "crunchy" details. I will track every name, location, and rule against a Lore Spreadsheet. You receive a consistency report.

The "Architect" Package

Add on to the Standard audit: creation of a permanent "Series Bible". I will do all of the standard audit plus build you an internal Wiki or "Series Bible", organized & searchable.

Imaginative World & Pacing Audit

The Storyboard Strategy

Focus: Structural integrity, pacing, and age-appropriateness.
A deep-dive edit of your manuscript’s "bones." I check for character agency, emotional resonance, and "page-turn" tension. For STEM books, this includes a basic logic/fact check..

The Prose & Pacing Polish

Sentence-level polish. I focus on word choice, cadence (especially for rhyming books), and vocabularly levels. Includes a "Read-Aloud" audit where I flag any possibly clunky phrasing that might trip up a parent or teacher.

The Junior Lore-Master

Full developmental edit + lore check. Everything in the Storyboard package, plus a dedicated lore-check. I track internal logic, world rules, and character consistecy to ensure your series bible is bulletproof. Includes a "Human First" certificate (verifying non-AI content or editing)
Best for authors building a series or complex world for younger readers.
