Pick the place you actually are.
Most authors use more than one of these over time — they're designed to connect. Apply at any door, we'll meet you where the work is.
Author Clarity Session
A one-on-one strategy session for writers at any stage. We work through the three questions that decide everything else: what is this book really about, who is it for, and what's the right next step from where you are right now. You leave with a written summary and a clear recommendation — not a pitch.
What's included
- • Pre-session worksheet to surface what's already in your head
- • 60–90 minute working session, recorded for your reference
- • Written summary with your concept, audience, and recommended next step
- • Honest assessment of fit — including when the right answer is somewhere else
Book Planning
For writers with an idea, an outline, or 30 pages that aren't quite working. Book Planning produces a working manuscript plan: concept refined, audience defined, structure mapped, voice and style direction set. The output is a foundation packet you take into drafting — most writers find drafting goes 2–3× faster after this.
What's included
- • Concept clarification — what is the book about, in one sentence
- • Audience definition — who is it for, who is it not for
- • Chapter-by-chapter structural outline that holds together
- • Voice + style direction — finding the way only you can write it
- • A complete planning packet to draft from
Manuscript Review
A discrete, deliverable engagement: we read your manuscript or a substantial section of it, and respond with a structured developmental review. This is the read most writers wish they'd had earlier — focused on the work itself, not on motivation. Useful before deciding to publish, or before commissioning an editor.
What's included
- • Read of up to ~80,000 words (longer manuscripts: scope by quote)
- • Editorial letter (8–12 pages) covering structure, pacing, voice, and clarity
- • Inline marginal notes on the manuscript itself
- • 30-minute follow-up call to walk through the review and answer questions
Publishing Guidance
For writers with a complete manuscript ready to be published. We handle editing (developmental → line → copy in sequence), cover and interior design, ISBN and metadata, distribution setup, and the production decisions that determine whether a book reads like a real book or a self-published one.
What's included
- • Editorial sequence — developmental, line, and copy
- • Cover and interior design
- • ISBN, metadata, and distribution setup
- • Production oversight through to print and ebook
- • Ongoing decisions guidance through publication
Launch Support
Launch is where most authors lose their book. Launch Support is a positioning + execution engagement that takes a finished book — yours or one we published — from inventory to readers. Pre-launch positioning, launch sequencing, and the systems that keep a book moving in the months that matter most.
What's included
- • Pre-launch positioning — who this book is for, where they live
- • Launch sequencing — the 30 days before, the launch day, the 60 days after
- • Author-platform basics — what to set up before you publish, not after
- • Review-generation strategy and execution
- • A launch dashboard you can actually read
