Testimonials
"...incredibly helpful and so appreciated. Your feedback has been invaluable to the Not Dead Yet series. Thank you so much!"
—Jenn Burke, author
"Feedback was very thorough! Line specific thoughts and edits made it clear that Hannah read closely and dedicated a lot of time and attention to the manuscript. The notes were earnest but always optimistic and I took many of them into consideration for edits.
I think anyone in later edits would benefit greatly from this level of feedback."
—K.J. Scott, author
Editorial Report
I offer a variety of services to meet authors' needs. Check out the Services Overview page to learn more.
Once your manuscript is complete, you'll want to know if your story accomplishes all it's intended to do. An editorial report highlights your story's strengths and growth areas, and offers some solutions to issues like plot holes and weak characterization. This is ideal for writers who:
-
want an affordable alternative to developmental edits
-
aim to polish their manuscript a bit more BEFORE developmental edits
-
are self-publishing and want a professional perspective before publication
My experience is in women's fiction, LGBTQ+ fiction, and romance novels, including all subgenres.
What I'll Check:
-
Do your characters feel believable?
-
Does your story hook readers?
-
Do the emotional beats have impact?
-
Are there plot holes or inconsistencies?
-
Is the formatting and font professional and readable?
-
Are some words noticeably overused?
-
Is the ending satisfying?
-
...and more!
What You'll Get:
-
One read of your manuscript
-
In-manuscript commentary through Word or Google Doc
-
An in-depth reader's report detailing the story's strengths and areas for growth
