Need to polish a story or essay before you submit it to literary journals or contests? Want help figuring out which writing samples to include with an application for a retreat or fellowship? I can help.
A story edit provides: 1) an edited story or essay, 2) a candid editorial letter in which I outline my recommendations on how to improve your work, plus strategic advice on the business of publishing, and 3) verbal feedback via phone for up to thirty minutes. Story edits are completed in approximately two weeks. To reserve a spot on my calendar, I require you to sign a consultation agreement and pay the fee in full upfront.
Story Edit Fee = $200 per story or essay
