Free Introductory Consultation

Looking for writing and publishing guidance with your work in progress?

Whether you’re a debut author trying to publish for the first time or a seasoned pro working on something new, working one-on-one with an experienced editor can make all the difference in giving your manuscript the best chance of successful publication.

We are pleased to be offering a free 30-minute introductory consultation (by phone or video conference) to help you navigate your path to traditional or independent publishing with confidence.

In this session, we’ll:

• Consider and discuss your book’s vision and goals–and how best to get where you’re going
• Identify areas for growth and refinement based on a summary of your manuscript and a sample of the writing
• Answer any questions you might have about how to best move forward
• Explore editing and publishing options tailored to your needs
• Follow up with a short written summary of what was discussed and, if applicable, provide a list of resources you may find helpful

No pressure, no obligation—just valuable insights to inform your process and move your project forward.

All we need to get started is some information about your manuscript, target readership, goals, and questions. Once you provide this, we’ll be in touch promptly to schedule your consultation session via phone or video conference.

Please note that this offer is limited to book-length fiction (adult, middle-grade, and YA) and narrative nonfiction only. 

Sorry, no flash fiction, books for very young readers, short stories, poetry, graphic novels, or novellas. (For help with these projects, please contact the Tucson office.)
