Submit up to 20 pages before we meet and we’ll go over them with a fine-toothed comb during a 90-minute edit session. I’ll follow up with edited pages, reference materials, and recommendations for specific websites to elevate your writing. $120 each (4 for $425)

Have an idea for a great book? With this consultation, we’ll ask the questions on every literary agent’s lips: What’s it about? What qualifies you write it? Who are your readers and how will you reach them? We’ll also cover current publishing trends and outline an action plan to get your project started on the right foot.

I’ll read your first fifty pages and provide detailed notes on voice, dialogue, setting, and character development. I’ll analyze your sentence mechanics and provide the tools to keep your writing clean and lean. I’ll also celebrate everything you’re doing right. The 50-Page Review includes line-edits for five pages and a 90-minute consultation.

Your story rocks, but your manuscript falls flat. This happens when an author knows too much--and stuffs it all into the book. To put the sizzle back in your story, we’ll clear info-clutter, tighten transitions, and quicken the pace to keep readers turning pages. A reading fee of $200 (applied to the total charge) will allow me to evaluate your full manuscript and provide a quote for this collaborative editing project. $850 to $5000
