Writing a book involves so much more than the mechanics of writing and editing.

It is a deeply vulnerable experience that peels away the many layers of yourself as you allow your Soul to write and speak through you.

That’s why I love being a BOOK DOULA.

Helping authors tell their Story and discover their WHY-their unique reason for telling their Story– is such a sacred privilege.

My Author Mentorships include all the mindfulness practices, visioning tools and writing rituals I have used in my own writing and self-publishing journey.

Three ways you can work with me

Editing Magic Mentorship

EDITORIAL ASSESSMENT starting at $275

This assessment gives an overview of your book idea and makes suggestions on the parts of the book that aren’t working so you can improve on them.

This may include finding plot or page transition issues, instances of show versus tell, misplaced scenes, or overused language, dialogue, etc. I also look at word count and page count. 

I will send back a marked-up manuscript and a full editorial letter, detailing what I think still needs work, along with suggestions on how to improve your manuscript.

DEVELOPMENTAL EDITING starting at $375

This is a line-by-line review of your manuscript. There will be 2 revisions.  The first will look at overall plot and transitions, as well as the formatting of text, etc. The overall focus is to ensure that the text is kid-friendly (at a level that children will understand) and will examine the effectiveness of the plot structure. Based on my 1st review, you will make your revisions and then submit for the final review.

I can also combine BOTH SERVICES  (Editorial assessment and 2 rounds of developmental line-editing)

PROOFREADING starting at $120

(for a 1000 word manuscript)

PLEASE NOTE : Rates for all editing services will depend on word count.
