First Three Chapters

Description: Almost all agent submissions ask for some or all of the first three chapters of your manuscript. You might feel ready to query agents, but don’t want to waste time submitting if the ms could be strengthened further.

Who is this for: Any aspiring author of fiction or memoir who feels ready to look for agents but would prefer specific points of constructive feedback to use in a final revision.

How it works: You send me your first three chapters (up to 30 double-spaced pages) and I’ll send it back to you with my annotations, queries and suggestions clearly visible in markup (Word or Google Doc).

Outcome: A precise and detailed editorial response from an experienced book editor and published author to assist you with specific final revisions to your manuscript before submitting to literary agents.
