Submission Packages
I will address ways to make your work as strong as possible to capture an agent or editor’s attention. These packages include one pass with both overall and in-line comments.

  • Query Critique: $15
  • Query and first five pages: $35
  • Query and first ten pages: $55
  • Query and first twenty pages: $75
  • Query and first fifty pages: $120
  • Query, synopsis, and first fifty pages: $140

 A page in standard manuscript format has about 250 words. 

Short Stories and Novellas
I will read your short story or Novella and give you detailed, actionable feedback on your story (plot, characters, and setting) and writing (diction, tone, voice, and your common quirks). 


  • $15 flat fee for stories under 2k words
  • $25 flat fee for stories between 2k and 5k words
  • $5 per 1k words for works that are 5k words or more
    • 6k short story = $30
    • 35k novella = $175 (maximum)

Payment Policies
All payments are made through PayPal. 
  • For projects under $50, I will invoice you once the work is completed.
  • For projects $50 and over, I will invoice you 50% before beginning work and the remaining 50% once the work has been completed. 


Why Work With Me?

  • I have a master’s degree in writing from Johns Hopkins University.
  • I've been in the query trenches and came out with an agent (Andrea Somberg at Harvey Klinger, Inc.) and a two-book deal (Carina Press/Harlequin).
  • My novels have received positive reviews from Library Journal, RT Book Reviews, and USA TODAY. 
  • I have more than fifteen years of experience in publishing and communications.
  • As a Pitch Wars mentor in 2016 and 2017, I looked at hundreds of queries and first chapters, and I know what makes a submission stand out.
  • I have experience editing and critiquing essays, short stories, blogs, website content, memoirs, and novels. ​
  • I understand what it’s like to have a book baby. You can expect me to provide honest feedback in a professional and compassionate way.
