Next Step Assessment

A "next step assessment" is an even smaller version of the manuscript critique. It's perfect if you have budget constraints or only need a cursory assessment of your manuscript with actionable feedback to fix the thing in your manuscript that will improve it the most.

What you'll get with a next step assessment

Not sure what to do next?

Don't have the budget for a developmental edit or manuscript critique?

Only need a cursory assessment?

Just want feedback on one aspect of your manuscript?

​

Then the next step assessment is for you.

​

You will receive a report that contains:

  • market research: know where your book fits in the market, what to look for when choosing a book cover, and potential tropes or topics your target readers are currently looking for

  • in-depth analysis of the one thing your story needs improvement on right now

  • actionable feedback and suggestions with homework steps to fix it

  • your next steps so you'll know what to do from there.

​

Whether your story has an underdeveloped antagonist, structural issue, bland dialogue, or shifting POV, I will break it down for you, explain the issue with recommended resources, offer suggestions and feedback, give you homework to fix it, and provide you with your next steps.

Price

A next step assessment has a flat fee price depending on the word count.
