Genre-Savvy Manuscript Critique
Helping you hit the market with a story you AND your readers will love.
This focused manuscript critique combines expert editorial insight with market-savvy strategy—designed especially for sci-fi and fantasy authors.
Whether you’re tackling a tricky plot issue, wrestling with worldbuilding, addressing a sensitive topic, or facing vague “it’s not quite right” rejections, this service brings clarity and momentum.
Manuscript Critique
I critique your full story for marketability. This means I check your story content, themes, voice, protagonist choice, character arcs, and compare it with the latest in genre/market expectations.
Plus, I review for one specific content area of your choice (plot problem, character development issue, world building, etc), word count reduction, ”it factor” (in the case of agent rejections), or portrayal of a sensitive topic.
Market-Focused Feedback
I provide an editorial letter of your story’s strengths and weaknesses in the area/issue you specify, plus ideas for improvement.
Strategy Session
We’ll have a fantastic 30-minute coaching session, where we’ll brainstorm solutions, ideas, business strategies, and marketing ideas for your book. You’ll also receive a follow-up email with session highlights and a video recording.
Your Investment: $.01/word ($350 minimum)
NOTE: My calendar for Genre-Savvy Story Critiques is currently closed. If you’d like me to look at a smaller sampling of pages, consider a 60-minute Book Breakthrough Coaching session.
