Founder of Myrtil Editorial
Bianca Myrtil is a professional editor and writer. She has had over 300 articles published in online publications such as Film Daily & the Orlando Sentinel and she relishes turning people’s drafted darlings into polished finished products. Words are her daily entrée of choice. When Bianca's not caramelizing sentences into tantalizing blends of flavors, she's whipping up meals for friends & family. That, or walking her cat. (No, that’s not a typo. Peter the cat loves taking walks.)

Michaela Bressel
"Not only did Bianca make my book interesting, readable, and professional, but she brought order to the chaotic story of my last nine years. She helped me to bring out exactly the message I wanted my readers to hear. Bianca cheered me on when I was weak, applauded me when I did well, and empathized when I failed. I have no idea how I could have revised this book with anyone BUT her!"
Kaitlyn Rentala
"I really appreciated how responsive Bianca was in answering my questions. Her comments were very helpful for revising and she pointed out ways I could make the story better extremely well."
FAQs
Still have questions about the process?
Check out these commonly asked questions.

No, you will receive a 5-8 page critique letter providing a review of the current state of your draft. That way you can revise things as you like.
Do I have to follow your feedback?
You're the one who grew your manuscript from that beautiful brain of yours so it's up to you how to prune & nurture it. I provide suggestions for stellar revisions, but you're in charge.
How fast will I receive my letter?
Manuscript critique letters are generally delivered within 3-6 weeks of receipt of manuscript.
What format will the manuscript critique letter come in?
PDF.
Do you offer other editing services?
I sure do! I offer proofreading and developmental editing (structural comments made in-document, if that's more your jam).
