Manuscript Assessment

Not sure if your story’s hitting the mark?
Don’t stress, I’ve got you. My manuscript assessments give you honest (but kind!) big-picture feedback to help you tighten up your story before diving into deeper edits. You’ll get a clear, professional overview of what’s working – and what needs attention – from someone who knows your genre and can help you move forward with confidence.

Please note: I currently only assess Romance, Women’s Fiction, RomComs, Children’s, Middle Grade, and Young Adult (aka the good stuff)

For completed manuscripts only.

What It Is
A high-level read-through focused on story structure, plot, pacing, character arcs, and overall cohesion. I’ll tell you what’s working, what’s wobbly, and what might be missing entirely. It’s a smart first step before diving into a full, and often expensive, developmental edit.

What You Get
A detailed editorial report highlighting strengths and suggested improvements.
Notes on plot, pacing, character development, dialogue, and more.
Honest feedback on your opening hook.
Actionable steps to help guide your next revision.

Writers on draft three (or seven) and still wondering what’s not quite working.
Authors getting ready for a full edit.
Indie authors or those preparing to query.
Anyone needing an expert eye and honest, encouraging feedback.
