Manuscript Evaluation

Book a Manuscript Evaluation and come away with a clear vision for your next draft.

You’ve spent the time pulling your story out of your head, you’ve breathed life into your characters and your world, and you’ve crafted a plot that you can’t wait to share with readers. But you may feel like your story doesn’t deserve to be told. You may feel that you’d be invisible in the world of manuscripts awaiting their chance to become a published book. You might be feeling like you’d get lost in the vast world of writers who have stories to tell. This fear can get in the way of starting revisions, or working through a problem you’ve encountered along the way, or even knowing where to begin

Your story deserves to be seen.

With a manuscript evaluation, you’ll come away with a clear path towards the next draft of your manuscript (whether you have finished a first draft or are on your penultimate draft). I’ll highlight your story’s strengths and areas to improve. I will review crucial structural considerations and examine emotion, reactions, and the experience of being in your story from three perspectives: book coach, writer, and reader.

When you book a Manuscript Evaluation with me, you’ll receive:
