Fiona gave me really great insights into a children’s picture book I was stuck with. Her recommendations helped take the story to the next level. In fact, she helped me find those places where I could elevate it in a way even other reviewers hadn’t seen, and I’m really loving the result!

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!

Thank you so much for the opportunity for feedback! This was another useful and productive session. Stephanie Stein gave me concrete, actionable feedback to implement in both my pages and query in an organized fashion. I’m so grateful for the opportunity to speak with her and my previous critique with Blair Thornburgh. Blair’s concise suggestions and Stephanie’s market knowledge and useful notes for my pages and query will help me improve my query package. Thank you for the opportunity to improve my writing with experiences with such seasoned professionals.

I had a 30/30 consultation with Katharine Sands last July that changed the way I looked at my manuscript. IÃd been struggling with it for some months, but after speaking with her, I was excited and inspired to rework the entire manuscript. Her insights had a profound impact, and I attribute her ìinterventionî with a completed manuscript of which IÃm very proud.
IÃve just finished a 15-minute query and 10-page consultation with Katharine, and once again IÃve come away with a clear direction and a goal. SheÃs generous with her time, and she puts the work in. You KNOW sheÃs carefully read your work. It doesnÃt matter your genre (mine is psychological suspense), Katharine has a unique ability to pinpoint the strengths and the weaknesses of your query and your pages. YouÃll see things differently, have a better understanding of the process, and most importantly, have a way forward. As far as IÃm concerned, that is priceless.

Emmy was fantastic! They were incredibly helpful in answering a maximum amount of questions with decisive thoroughness all while being mindful of our limited time together. My query was greatly improved thanks to their input and I would recommend them to anyone looking for suggestions, encouragement, and redirection in the query writing process. Thank you Emmy!
