Do you need help with a book-length manuscript?
I've got a couple of slots left between now and the end of the year.
Hello Writers—
This is just a quick note to let you know that I have a couple of slots available for one-on-one editing, coaching, and consulting for book-length manuscripts—one slot for November, and one for December.
Here's how it will work: You send me your manuscript (either fiction or nonfiction), I read it, and I send you back detailed written comments and notes, from sentence-level issues to bigger organizational issues, depending on what your manuscript needs. We'll also have a couple of hour-long Zoom conversations to talk through my feedback.
If you've ever done one of my small-group workshops, I'll be providing the kind of line-by-line critique I provide there. The difference is that a) you won't be limited to 5000 words, as in the workshops, and b) there's no group component; everything will be one-on-one.
I should also mention that I won't be providing guidance regarding publishers, agents, query letters, etc.—for the excellent reason that I don't have a whole lot of expertise in that area...or, in any case, such expertise as I have is somewhat outdated. But I have ample expertise in the matter of helping people write better books.
I'll take up to three editing/coaching/consulting clients at a time. As you can imagine, this will be quite a bit more expensive than any of my other offerings. If you're interested, or if you just have questions, reply to this email and we'll talk about it.
Thanks!
JR
