Sobre mí
Hi, I’m Ritika, a romance developmental editor, founder of Kiss and Critique book editing service, and a professionally paid overthinker of your plot. If your story feels a little off but you can’t tell why (or you’re hoping it’ll magically fix itself… it won’t), I’m your person. I give honest, actionable feedback on plot, pacing, characters, romance arc, and emotional payoff. No vague comments, no sugarcoating, no soul-crushing edits. Your story keeps its spark. I just make sure it doesn’t fall apart on page 47.... Lee más

Romance Developmental Editor

Kiss and Critique • Trabajador autónomo

Dec 2022 - Present3 yrs 7 mos

Founder of Kiss and Critique, where I work with romance writers to fix what’s not working at the structural level, before it turns into a full-blown “why does this feel off?” crisis. I’ve worked with both indie and bestselling authors, from messy first drafts to manuscripts that are almost there but not quite hitting the mark. Different writers, same goal: make the story actually work. I specialise in spotting the issues quietly sabotaging your story, like uneven pacing, weak turning points, inconsistent character motivation, and emotional arcs that almost land… but don’t. My feedback is detailed, practical, and actually usable. Writers leave with clear direction, stronger story foundations, and a much better grip on what their story is doing (and what it should be doing).

    Ritika is exceptional. This was my second time hiring her to beta an interactive romance product (not a normal manuscript), and she brought the same sharp editor eye with zero fluff. She didn’t just “try it for an hour.” She ran multiple full stories across different character types to stress-test authenticity,...

    This was my first story and first developmental edit ever. It was incredibly worth it. No matter how many times I looked at my story, I knew there were issues. It got to the point that I didn't know where all the problems were. Ritika was meticulous in explaining what worked and what didn't. She didn't...

    Working with Marika was an absolutely amazing experience. She delivered the beta reading report even earlier than expected, and all of her inline comments and overall feedback make perfect sense. She has a very professional approach and provided incredibly valuable insights for my manuscript. I highly...

    Ritika's comments are so helpful! I really appreciate her feedback in sorting out this particular book - it's been stickier to write than I had hoped for, but we will get there with Ritika's thoughtful critique.
