I am excited to rework my query and think it will be stronger thanks to her advice
Caitlin was wonderful! She reviewed my query with me and gave me great insight into how to integrate “industry standard” pieces, such as comps. We also discussed how important specificity is in a query and she helped me identify places where my language was vague. She was a great manager of time, making sure to leave enough time for me to ask questions at the end after sharing her thoughts. I am excited to rework my query and think it will be stronger thanks to her advice.

She offered really astute insights and suggestions
I was so happy to get Kayla Lightner’s take on the first ten pages of my novel. She offered really astute insights and suggestions. I was concerned that what I was trying to create, in terms of the voice, was not on key, and Kayla provided more than the feedback I needed. Her comments were clear, which of course was helpful–but on top of that she was warm and encouraging. My only regret is that the conversation couldn’t have lasted longer. It was a delightful fifteen minutes.

She was extremely helpful with her feedback
I submitted a small writing sample prior to my meeting with Hannah. I was a bit anxious as I knew we only had a short time, but she got right down to business. She was extremely helpful with her feedback as well as her insights on new author websites, social media and query letters. I truly appreciated everything she had to say and felt I really benefitted from our time together.

Super nice and thorough
Jessica was super nice and thorough. I didn’t feel like I was rushed, nor that we missed discussing anything. I’m so happy with my experience!

She helped me solve issues I’ve been having with my manuscript and encouraged me to continue in my efforts to find an agent.
Jennifer is awesome. She helped me solve issues I’ve been having with my manuscript and encouraged me to continue in my efforts to find an agent. She gave me specific suggestions and more general plot and character thoughts. It wasn’t so much a critique as a collaboration. I highly recommend her for a critique.

She also pointed out specific areas of my query letter that could be improved and tweaked.
It’s incredible how much Em was able to help in 10 minutes! Not only did she give me great general advice as it pertains to query letters’ structure and contents, but she also pointed out specific areas of mine that could be improved and tweaked. She was so informative that she actually covered most of the questions I’d written out in advance to ask, so we had time for me to try and come up with new questions on the fly. I can’t recommend her highly enough to go over your query letter and give insight as to what is or isn’t working as well as how to make it stronger.

Wonderful pointers and advice
It was a great pleasure chatting with Fiona. She was spot-on about my submission and gave me wonderful pointers and advice – plus she’s a dog lover so my pup, Zinnia, was invited into the Zoom and enjoyed meeting her as well!

Ten minutes with Fiona was all I needed to get me enthusiastic about my writing again and excited to get started on my editing!
Ten minutes with Fiona was all I needed to get me enthusiastic about my writing again and excited to get started on my editing! Fiona was absolutely wonderful – she was supportive, insightful, encouraging, and critical in all the right ways. As a new author and someone lacking many connections within the industry, it was great to be able to get expert guidance and to receive really specific, tailored advice that will help me take my query – and my writing – to the next level.
