Mini Manuscript Evaluation

You’ve done the work. Now let’s make sure it’s working.

You’ve rewritten, rearranged, reimagined. You’ve begged your characters to behave and wrestled your plot into shape more times than you can count. But something still isn’t clicking—and you’re too close to see it clearly.

That’s where I come in. With a sharp eye for story structure and emotional arcs, I’ll help you step back and see the bigger picture, so you can revise with confidence instead of crossing your fingers.

What You’ll Get:

  • A developmental evaluation of your novel’s foundation, based on: Your Mini Blueprint materials (provided by me), a one-page synopsis and your first chapter
  • A written summary (3–5 pages) of what’s working, what’s unclear, and where the story can grow
  • In-line comments for specific, actionable insights
  • A 50-minute coaching call on Zoom to walk through your feedback, ask questions, and discuss the next steps
  • Clarity on your genre conventions and market positioning
  • Additional exercises or resources (when applicable) to deepen your characters or sharpen your premise

This is for writers who’ve already done the heavy lifting—but need a story-savvy check-in to make sure their foundation is solid before moving forward.

Who it's for:
  • Writers mid-revision who want a gut-check on their premise, genre fit, and emotional core
  • Writers spinning their wheels and wondering if they’re solving the right problems
  • Writers craving thoughtful, story-level feedback without committing to a full developmental edit
