Renee Fountain provided a critique of my query letter and the first ten pages of my manuscript. Her feedback was concise and insightful. She provided very specific examples of how to fix my work. She’s straightforward, professional and she’s not afraid to push you toward a better finished product. Cannot recommend her enough!

BiBi was very approachable and helpful. She was specific in the things she liked about my query letter and sample pages, and also about the few things she thought I’d benefit from tweaking. Even down to a single word, in one case. (The word was “intrigued,” fyi.) I appreciate her thoughtful feedback. Those 15 minutes flew by, though, so I’m glad I came prepared!

I did three Manuscript Academy sessions over the course of about 18 months with Linda Camacho. In our first session, she helped me get my query letter and first pages ready for querying. Ultimately, I received 14 full requests from agents and 3 full requests from publishers. That was followed by two agent offers and an offer from a small press before I contacted my other outstanding submissions and ended up querying journey. I also had two calls with Linda during the querying process to analyze my options and chart out a path for my future. In addition to being knowledgeable about the industry, Linda is kind and enthusiastic and made me feel like she was invested in my journey. She went out of her way to make time for me when I had a deadline to make a decision. I simply cannot say enough good things about Linda and my experience working with her through Manuscript Academy!

Blair was well-prepared for our meeting and offered great feedback and advice. She was very optimistic about the potential for my work and I’ve started incorporating her notes already.
Thanks so much!

Katharine was terrific. I had a hard time keeping up with my notes she gave so many specific suggestions for my query letter and first chapter. IÃm working on a memoir and she was graciously sensitive to the subject matter while still giving pointed feedback on the execution. She was exactly what I needed and both are so much better in the rewrite.

My consultation with Alyssa was so lovely and uplifting and it was exactly the boost I needed to get into the trenches. I’ve been feeling really anxious about querying, but her insight and advice, as well as her support, was the perfect combo. I feel both prepared and motivated to dive in. Thank you for offering this service!

I had a 10 page consultation with Molly that was wonderful. Her comments and remarks were extremely helpful and I feel like her guidance will help make my query and story that much more compelling. She was open, honest, and answered all the questions I had. I would highly recommend Molly.

I had a fantastic session with Renee Fountain. My manuscript is way too long and Renee was extremely helpful going through some of my pages, helping me to understand how to condense and make my novel tighter and have more impact. This was exactly what I was looking for. I plan to have more sessions like this with Renee. I’m extremely grateful to have had this time with her.

Alyssa was great. I enjoyed the conversation and came away with some specific things I could understand and do better and with some added confidence. It was 10 minutes well-spent.
