My consultation with Stacey Graham was fantastic! In addition to some specific, actionable feedback on the pages I submitted, she gave me valuable insight on the marketplace and how it is probably affecting my submissions. I came away feeling much better about my current state and moving forward. Thanks, Stacey!

I found my consultation with Stacy to be extremely helpful. She asked insightful questions about my story to help clarify a confusing paragraph of my query, and I think my letter is a lot better because of it. She was kind, genuinely seemed interested in my manuscript, and made sure to answer all my questions. I highly recommend meeting with Stacey!
