Let’s work together.

  • Story Grid Diagnostic

    A story that lasts is a story that works. And you are wondering if your manuscript works. I can look at it on macro and micro levels using Story Grid methodology and provide actionable feedback.

    $2,500 for up to 100K words. Deliverables include an Editor’s Six Core Questions analysis, a 1-hour consultation call, a Story Grid Spreadsheet of your first five scenes, a next-steps recommendation letter, genre masterwork recommendations, and genre cheat sheets.

  • Book Coaching

    Commit to a relationship. Commit to regular check-ins and rewrites until your manuscript or book proposal shines. With this package you are getting a cheerleader, editor, and mentor all in one.

    $899/month for two virtual coaching calls each month. Deliverables are dependent on your starting point (anywhere from “I have an idea” to “I have a rough draft manuscript”), but can include portions of a Story Grid Diagnostic, feedback on story planning or manuscript materials to address on the virtual coaching calls, and clear next steps toward manuscript or proposal completion.

  • Copy Editing

    Just like it sounds. I will do a line-by-line edit concentrating on grammar, consistency, and those pesky en-dashes vs. em-dashes. I especially love a dense bibliography.

    $60/hour. For full manuscripts, please send me a 10-page sample to get a flat-fee cost estimate based on your total page count.

    Copy editing on book proposals up to 80 pages are $450 with a turnaround of 3 business days.

  • Pitch Plan

    Offered to clients who have already completed a manuscript diagnostic or monthly book coaching with me, or who have been referred by another editor or book coach. Let’s get your work on the shelf! Together we’ll tackle agent or publisher research, query letters, synopses, and a pitching strategy to meet your publishing goals.
