A manuscript review is a big-picture review of your story for logic, story arc, consistency, and voice. Logical and plot gaps are identified, and I provide suggestions for improving your story's overall rhythm, flow, and accessibility for readers.
Editing
Editing can be developmental (such as the manuscript review described to the left) or more detailed work such as line editing. The editing required for your manuscript depends on its current form. I'd be happy to review your story and provide feedback about editing alternatives and costs.
School/Library Visits
Need a speaker for a library or school event? I'd love to visit your school or library and talk about writing and/or editing or whatever writing-related topic you'd like.
Creative Collaboration
I'm always looking for illustrators and other writers with whom I can collaborate. If you have a project you'd like to discuss, send me a message with the details. Let's talk!

School/Library Visits
Need a speaker for a library or school event? I'd love to visit your school or library and talk about writing and/or editing, wine, chocolate, or whatever writing-related topic you like. I'm especially partial to wine and chocolate, but to date no educational institution has taken me up on it. You could be the first! :)
