Coaching

When you're in the early stages of drafting your book and you're looking for a little guidance, I offer monthly coaching to help you shape and refine 5,000 to 15,000 words per month. For authors who aren't ready to commit to word counts, I also offer hourly coaching and support packages.

Pricing: See monthly coaching details and pricing here. Hourly coaching rate is $100/hour, with a minimum of five hours. Additional packages can be customized to your needs. Contact me to discuss!

Manuscript Critique & Developmental Edit

You’ve finished a first draft, and you’re looking for feedback to kick off the editing process. Or you’re halfway through and unsure of what’s working and where to go next. I offer developmental edits and high-level critiques for early drafts, assessing the structure, tone, and style of the story. (Learn what to expect from a manuscript critique.)

Manuscript Critique

I read your full manuscript and compile feedback in a high-level editorial letter that covers your specific questions and concerns as well as any or all of the following as needed: structure, pacing, flow of narrative, transitions, voice, plot, dialogue, audience.

Pricing: Varied based on authors’ needs. 2-3 cents per word.

Developmental Edit

For a more in-depth overview of what’s already working and how to punch up the pieces that still need work, my developmental edit includes everything in the manuscript critique plus comments, questions, and suggestions inserted into the margins of your manuscript in order to expand upon the content of the editorial letter and provide an extra layer of depth and specificity.

Pricing: Varied based on authors’ needs. 3-5 cents per word.

I also offer partial manuscript critiques! Learn about my Creative Kickstart package.

Editing

Whether you’re looking for deep structural edits, help with style and voice, or the grammar polish that makes your manuscript shine, I offer comprehensive editorial services for in-progress manuscripts. Not sure what you need? Contact me, and I’ll be happy to discuss it with you.

Pricing: Varied based on authors’ needs. 2-7 cents per word
