Anastasia L.
Developmental Editor | SEO & AI-Ready Content Strategist
STRATEGIC EDITORIAL & SEO-DRIVEN CONTENT SUPPORT Clear structure. Strong voice. Content that performs. I bring more than 20 years of professional writing and editorial experience across corporate communications, digital marketing, and long-form manuscript development. My work falls into two focused areas: 1. Developmental Editing for Nonfiction & Memoir Authors I help authors strengthen structure, narrative flow, pacing, and clarity while preserving authentic voice. My approach prioritizes big-picture organization and reader impact before line-level refinement. I seek a strategic editorial partnership for serious authors preparing for publication or submission. Services include: • Full manuscript developmental editing • Manuscript clarity & structure intensives • Narrative flow and pacing analysis • Voice refinement • Final manuscript polish 2. SEO & AI-Optimized Content Writing and Editing I also work with digital brands and agencies to create and refine high-performing web content aligned with search intent and AI visibility. Services include: • SEO-structured web and blog content • AI-assisted content refinement & prompt optimization • Content audits and clarity upgrades • Conversion-focused service pages • Brand voice alignment My focus is clarity, structure, and measurable digital performance, not keyword stuffing or generic content. If you are looking for thoughtful, strategic editorial work — whether for a manuscript or digital content initiative — I’d be glad to discuss your project. I’m happy to begin with a short paid sample review so you can see how I work before committing to a larger engagement.
