Manuscript Evaluation

My goal during a manuscript evaluation is to give the author a detailed roadmap for completing their next round of revisions. To learn more, visit the Manuscript Evaluation page.

Coaching and Developmental Editing

Sometimes a manuscript evaluation is all an author needs to get started on revising. Sometimes, though, you might want a bit more guidance. Find out more on the Coaching and Developmental Editing page.

Structural Editing

Deep structure jobs usually happen in three stages: developing a new outline, additional writing, and careful cutting. Visit the Structural Editing page to learn more.

Line Editing

A thorough final edit gets your manuscript “clean” enough that you’ll be able to confidently self-publish or submit the book to publishers or agents. Check out the Line Editing page for more information.
