Prepares Queries for Stronger Appeal
Amy offered extremely helpful advice, including specific suggestions, to help me shape my query so that it will be more appealing to agents. She was so incredibly prepared that we had half the time left to discuss other questions I had. I cannot recommend her enough.

Provides Expert Genre-Specific Feedback
My 10-page read and 15-minute consultation with Jessica Watterson was incredibly helpful. Jessica picked out weaknesses in the pages and query that IÃd missed, and made simple, concrete suggestions for improvement. ItÃs great to get advice from someone with so much experience of the genre, and Jessica couldnÃt have been more helpful and encouraging. Having made her suggested edits, I already feel my novel is closer to being submission ready.

Finds the Heart of a Story
Fiona was just magical! I met with her to evaluate my MG fantasy query letter. Fiona helped my weed through the unnecessary details that were cluttering my query and instead guided me to find the real heart of my story and what makes it unique. Fiona was a pleasure to talk with and her feedback was contructive and honest.

Cecelia gave me very helpful comments. She was very encouraging, but pointed out exactly what I had to do to make the story more compelling, and how to tweak my inquiry as well. She was also helpful in helping me understand my genre.

Refines Queries with Targeted Advice
Saba was prepared, friendly, and very helpful. She zeroed in on some areas to trim in my query, and told me what is working. She also answered some questions I had about the publishing industry and genre terms. I’d highly recommend her for advice on your query or publishing in general.

Exceeds Expectations with Generous Feedback
Just a quick note to say that Rene far exceeded my expectations both in terms of her feedback and the generosity of her time. She went well beyond my hopes for the kind of actionable intelligence I was looking for, and I couldn’t be happier.

Motivates with Clear, Constructive Feedback
Ms. McDonald’s constructive feedback inspired and motivated me. Her responses cut a clearer picture leading to a smoother path of transition for the first ten pages of my manuscript. Ms. McDonald’s evaluation filled in the gaps of my writing, and I feel more confident querying agents thanks to her enlightening comments. I wish she could read my edits based on her input! If you are considering booking an appointment, I suggest you stop contemplating and schedule! The time and money was well worth the outcome.

Suggests Stronger Storytelling Techniques
My 10-minutes with an expert consult with Saba was fantastic. She told me what worked in the introductory page of my memoir and suggested ways to deepen my storytelling. She referred me to the introductory pages of 3 memoirs and explained what to notice about each, commenting on ways I could use similar approaches. It was wonderful to have such substantive guidance and tips on my agent search too. I highly recommend a consult with Saba.
