DEEP DIVE

MANUSCRIPT EVALUATION

Lost in a sea of revisions?

You don't need to navigate alone. 

A deep dive evaluation is a comprehensive assessment of your novel.

 

    I will:

  • Read your entire manuscript

  • Write a 6-10 page editorial letter on its strengths and weaknesses (with a focus on plot, character development, dialogue, setting, pacing, and tension).

  • Provide a list of suggested next steps 

  • Discuss the feedback and next steps with you on a 50-minute Zoom call. 

 

An evaluation does not focus on corrections

to spelling or grammar.

I am grateful to live and work in Ottawa, Canada, on the traditional, unceded land of the Algonquin Anishinaabe people. As someone who supports writers, I believe stories carry responsibility. This acknowledgement is a reminder for me to listen with respect, to learn from the truths of Indigenous peoples, and to encourage writing that honours the diversity of voices on this land.
