About this Gig


What you get:

Manuscript Critique & Marginal Feedback

This is where we get into the bulk of your story. You will receive a Manuscript Critique (average 7 to 10-page letter), along with marginal feedback. I will discuss the readability of your book when referring to the following craft elements:


  • Hook/Opening
  • Character Development
  • Themes and Subtext
  • Plot and Subplot
  • Pacing and Momentum
  • Tone, Voice, and Word Choice
  • Structure and Form
  • Exposition
  • Scene
  • Setting and World-building
  • Reader Expectation/Marketability

I will also answer questions such as:


Would I recommend this book?
Which characters did I connect with, and why?
Did I find the storyline believable (even if this is Sci-Fi or Fantasy)?
Was the tense and POV the best choice for the story and the writing style?
Was there any part of the writing that I skimmed? Why?
Were all issues (especially subplots/secondary storylines) resolved?


Before I start a project, I welcome and recommend that you let me know of anything specific that you would like me to focus on. I will make sure to address those concerns first.


2 Passes - I will read it once while taking notes. The 2nd time around, I will add marginal notes.
