About this Gig

First off, congratulations on writing your story to this point. This is an amazing achievement. I'm hoping that any feedback you get from me will only make you more excited to dig back into your story and make it even better!


*Only accepted formats: WORD or Google Docs. Please contact me before submitting an order to check availability and avoid cancelations.


My critiques will focus primarily on the overall story structure, plot, setting, character and story arcs. I will also provide honest feedback about character likeability, flow, language use, and whatever else I find unique and sticks out to me.


I will go through the document and give in-line comments about my thoughts and emotions as I read. I strive to give an explanation of why I feel a certain way. You won't find comments with a simple emoji or "I liked this/I disliked this."


I will provide a detailed editorial letter that includes my thoughts on readability, flow, description, character development, pacing, and much more!


I enjoy reading romance, thrillers, and YA. But I welcome other genres.

Unfortunately I don't accept memoirs or nonfiction.

    CourtneyZ was amazing in reading my manuscript. She went above and beyond. She also didn't just blow sunshine. She gave me a lot to think about and work on.

    Always a pleasure to work with Courtney, she really seems to understand what I'm trying to achieve. Her suggestions for improvement make my revised versions so much better. I emphatically recommend her work for anyone who's looking for this kind of project.

    I'm super impressed with Courtney and the quality of the developmental edit she provided. I wasn't quite sure what to expect, but she was incredibly thorough. While I would have loved her to tell me only good things about my story, she pointed out things that I needed to hear to hopefully make the story...

    I feel she has really got into the work I'm doing, understands the characters and picks up small details that I miss in the rush of enthusiasm of writing. I always use her reviews to amend my stories and feel they're hugely improved afterwards.

    As always, a pleasure to work with. She is extremely professional and polite and shows that she really 'gets' my characters. The guidance she gives me always helps me to refine the original work and greatly improve it.
