Editorial Consulting

When you realize that you have something to say, a message to impart, a story to tell, some wisdom to impart, you begin a confusing, often solitary journey. The bookshelves groan with guides to getting published, and a whole conference industry has grown up to help writers get their words in front of an audience. And still the path is unclear. How do I get started? What?s unique about my idea? How do I refine my thoughts? How do I structure this book? What does an agent look for? How is a successful proposal put together? How do I build a platform? What will attract the eye of an editor? What can get my book acquired? How can I make it sell?

With one-on-one editorial consulting, I can answer those questions for you in a way that no conference or book can hope to. I will leverage my decades of experience in the industry guiding hundreds of authors to help you find your voice and your audience.

A note about ethics:
While I am both a literary agent and a consultant, I neither consult for my agency clients nor represent my consulting clients. It would be unethical for me to do so. Thank you for your understanding.
