4-Month Intensive

Investment: $4500 for YA/Adult, $4000 for Middle Grade

Time Frame: 4 Months

This coaching option is for writers who want to work intensively on their writing in order to prepare their work for submission or publication.

This service is for writers who are done messing around and are ready to do what it takes to get their book ready for the next level.

4-Month Revision

Prerequisite: a completed manuscript

To start: I’ll assess your manuscript and provide you with a comprehensive revision plan to guide your intensive.

The bulk of our time together: You’ll submit your pages twice per month (up to 50 pages per deadline) as you revise. I’ll provide feedback (including comprehensive inline comments) so you can continue to polish.

Upon completing this program, your book will have gone through two full rounds of revision!

Each month, we will have two 50-minute private video calls to answer your questions, address your concerns, and make sure your project is on track.

Payment schedule:

  • $1500 to start Month 1 ($1000 for Middle Grade)

  • $1000 at the start of each subsequent month

Optional Add-On: A final evaluation of your manuscript for the flat fee of an additional $1000 ($500 for Middle Grade)

4-Month Book Proposal

Prerequisite: completion of the Blueprint service

To start: I’ll provide you with a step-by-step guide to complete your book proposal over the next four months.

The bulk of our time together: You’ll submit your pages twice per month as you construct your book proposal. You’ll receive editorial feedback (including inline comments and strategical analysis) every step of the way.

To finish: I’ll provide a final evaluation of your full proposal. We’ll wrap up by discussing next steps.

Each month, we will have two 50-minute private video calls to answer your questions, address your concerns, and make sure your project is on track.

Payment schedule:

  • $1500 to start Month 1 ($1000 for Middle Grade)

  • $1000 at the start of each subsequent month
