Get started now! Here’s how it works:
1. Complete the form below to tell me a bit about your book and yourself.
2. I’ll call you to discuss your project, and we will decide on a schedule and package that is right for you.
3. You send me the manuscript. I read it carefully.
4. I will then provide a written evaluation of your book’s strengths and weaknesses. The evaluation will include detailed feedback on structure, plot, characterization, dialogue, setting, theme, pacing, description, and anything else that is relevant to your book.
5. After you’ve had a chance to read and think about my written comments, we’ll schedule a 90-minute consultation by phone, video chat, or in person. I’ll answer any questions you have, expand on my written comments, and help you establish a plan for revising the book.
7. At this stage, you will be ready to tackle your revision with a fresh perspective. You may choose to submit your revision to me for further evaluation, or request a complete line edit of your revised manuscript. If you are in the early stages of writing your novel, or if you are preparing a sample to send out to agents, the First Fifty Pages package may be for you.
