How do I know what type of service I need?

This is tricky! Manuscripts are in all types of stages, sometimes all at once. I recommend filling out a contact form and letting me know that you are unsure of what you need, and we will set up a meeting to figure it out! These initial meetings are not charged as they are purely informational. Don’t hesitate to ask!

I’m on a budget, do you offer payment plans?

Absolutely. I will always work with an author that is in need of it help. Financial situations are hard and I don’t want that to be a barrier that stops your work from being the best it can be. If need be, we can work something out!

How do you know what’s best for my book?

Well, I don’t necessarily. I have a background in editorial work and storytelling and have learned that this process is collaborative on both ends. Meaning, I am reading the manuscript for your vision, not mine. Before any work gets started I will ask you if you have anything you’d like for me to look out for, what your big picture for the story is, and any problem areas you just don’t know what to do with. Using both my editorial degree and creative writing degree, I can come up with a few solutions or paths for you to take your story if you choose to use them.

What genres do you work in?

I work with Adult, YA, and NA fiction, fantasy, sci-fi, and romance. I love these genres and am an avid reader of whatever I can get my hands on in them, giving me an eye for tropes, arcs, and plot lines that are work and don’t work. I will sometimes take creative non-fiction such as memoirs. However, all other non-fiction books and poetry are not in my skillset, and I wouldn’t want to steer anyone in the wrong direction.
