How it works
Phase 1
Manuscript Assessment and Planning
We’ll start by mapping out exactly how we’ll transform your manuscript into something publishers and readers will love. I’ll take time to really understand your vision–what makes your story unique and what you’re aiming to achieve.
You’ll share your publishing goals with me, and I’ll show you how we can position your book to truly connect with readers who’ll fall in love with your work. My streamlined process saves you from endless revision cycles so you can get your book into readers’ hands faster.
I’ll show you exactly what’s working in your novel and where we can make it shine even brighter. Instead of feeling overwhelmed by revisions, you’ll have clear, manageable steps to follow.
Together, we’ll craft a strategy that not only fulfills your creative vision but also creates that magical connection with readers that keeps them turning pages.
The skills you’ll pick up along the way will make every book you write afterward stronger and more marketable–this is an investment in your entire writing career.
Phase 2
Editing the Manuscript
I’ll help you spot those places where readers might put your book down and transform them into moments they can’t tear themselves away from.
If you’ve been worried about the revision process, don’t be–I’ll be right there with you, breaking it down into simple steps that build toward a book readers will rave about.
The techniques we use won’t just improve this manuscript, they’re skills you’ll carry forward to every story you write and also knock out books faster.
We’ll make your fictional world and characters so vivid that readers will feel like they’ve actually been there and known these people. This is where the magic happens–creating that emotional investment for readers.
I’ll help keep your vision intact while improving the elements readers connect with most so they want to buy more of your books and you’re able to build a community around your novel.
By now, your story will have a solid foundation that makes a novel stand out in today’s crowded book market.
I’ll share insider strategies that professional authors use to elevate their work from good to great, while helping you identify what makes your story special–those unique elements that will attract your ideal readers and catch the eye of agents and publishers looking for fresh voices.
Phase 3
Line & Copy Editing
Once you have the developmental edits implemented, I’ll polish the manuscript through the line editing process. This is what creates that professional reading experience that earns glowing reviews and reader loyalty.
Your manuscript will flow beautifully, with the kind of clarity that keeps readers engaged. You’ll develop your own distinctive style that becomes part of your author brand–something readers recognize and connect with across all your books.
Your manuscript will achieve that technical precision that signals to readers, reviewers, and industry professionals that you’re the real deal. I’ll catch all those little distractions that could pull readers out of your story.
I’ll teach you the art of crafting book descriptions that make browsers hit that “buy” button and helping you maximize the return on all the creative energy you’ve poured into your book.
Phase 4
Final Polish & Marketing Guidance
This is where your manuscript truly transforms into a book that stands shoulder-to-shoulder with titles from established authors. I’ll make sure every aspect meets the industry standards.
You’ll have a manuscript you can confidently share with agents, publishers, or directly with readers through self-publishing.
Because a great book deserves to be found, we’ll lay the marketing groundwork that positions your story to find its audience and generate the kind of buzz that fuels long-term writing success.
I’ll show you how the distinctive elements of your story can help you build a community of readers who don’t just buy your book–they champion it to others. We’ll cut through the noise of thousands of new releases and connect with your ideal reader audience.
Even if marketing feels intimidating now, you’ll walk away with practical, doable techniques to build genuine connections with readers. This lays the groundwork for success across multiple books and helps position you as a notable voice in your genre.
