About

I’m Marla, a fiction editor specializing in romance and character-driven genre fiction. I work with authors at all stages of revision, helping them strengthen structure, sharpen emotional beats, and land the payoff readers are waiting for—without flattening voice or style. The Emotional Arc is where I write about story craft, revision, and what I see across manuscripts: why scenes fall flat, where pacing breaks down, and how emotion actually works on the page. If you’re revising a novel or preparing a manuscript for editing, you’re in the right place.

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Pricing is figured on a project-by-project basis, depending on word count and time involved. I usually average between $20-$30 an hour.
How did you get started doing this type of work?
I'm happiest when I'm writing.
Describe a recent project you are fond of. How long did it take?
The Potwin Fiber Artisans membership brochure was a lot of fun to work on. Using their logo and photos from their website, I put together an informative and professional brochure to help add members to this burgeoning fiber arts cooperative.
