Hi! I’m Kerry.
I’m a writer, Author Accelerator certified book coach, and long-time project manager. I have lots of experiencing reviewing manuscripts and helping writers go from good to great.
Allowing someone to read your words is a big decision, regardless of whether they are a family member (not always the best choice) or a paid professional. It’s in your best interest to make sure you and your manuscript are ready to take this step. And that’s what this assessment can help you do.
The Manuscript Review Ready Check Self-Assessment includes:
Questions about story and structure, to make sure your narrative holds together on a holistic level.
Confirmation that your characters are acting logically, have agency, and that your point of view(s) are clear and consistent.
Checks to make sure you’re aligning with genre expectations and industry standards.
Clear markers that you’re ready to share your manuscript with outside readers.
