Choose from three basic services. Discounts apply when you book multiple services together. When you're ready to get started, email me at: lara [at] help4writers [dot] com

1.) Manuscript consultation

>> What it is: The whole enchilada. I'll read it. Every page, up to 50,000 words. And I'll help you revise so it catches the eye of agents and editors.
>> What you get: Up front, I'll get notes from you about what you think some of the book's strengths and weaknesses are. After I read it, I'll give you a detailed editorial letter, no less than two pages, usually more like five. Afterwards, we'll schedule a 15-minute phone conversation to go over the letter and so I can answer any questions you might have about what I wrote.
>> How much it costs: $400
>> Turnaround time: 7 to 10 days

2.) Five-page fix

>>What it is: You can tell a lot about a book by the first five pages. You also want these pages to shine because agents and editors often request them. I'll read yours and provide feedback.
>> What you get: I'll ask you for notes about your manuscript's strengths and weaknesses, and I'll read your first five pages with these in mind. Afterwards, I'll send you a detailed editorial letter, no less than two pages. If you have follow-up questions, you can email them to me.
>> How much it costs: $150
>> Turnaround time: 3 to 5 days

3.) Query letter love

>> What it is: You want to put your best foot forward with agents and editors through your query. I want to help you.
>> What you get: I'll read your query and make suggestions. Most of my edits will be done right on the document, but I'll also send you a few paragraphs about any suggested changes.
>> How much it costs: $75
>> Turnaround time: 2 to 4 days

Payment details: I will require half the total fee upfront, and the remainder when I complete my services. I accept payments through PayPal.
