About this Gig

Got a story that's almost there, but you can't tell what's holding it back? That's what I'm here for!


I'm a writer with eight years of professional writing experience and writing classes at the University of Iowa. I read your pages the way a good workshop partner would: closely, honestly, and with an eye on what you're trying to do, not what I'd do.


What you get:

  • Margin comments on your manuscript
  • A one-page summary of what's working, what isn't, and what to fix first
  • Notes on structure, pacing, character, voice, and dialogue
  • Best for short stories, flash fiction, and the opening chapters of a novel, in any genre.
  • Revisions mean follow-up questions or a quick re-check of your fixes, not a re-edit of a fully rewritten draft.
  • Want sentence-level polish too? Ask about the line edit add-on!
