A detailed critique of your book
with line-by-line commentary. Perfect for a complete
draft.
This is ideal when you want to work
further on your book, and want professional input and
detailed advice on what's working, what to develop,
and what to change.
I give you a detailed assessment of
your work: a written report (usually 5-10 pages) and
a line-by-line commentary on your book, with specific
recommendations at every stage. We then arrange a time
to speak for an hour for further feedback and discussion.
You then have absolutely clear guidelines for how to
rework it.
The topics covered include
- structure: your organising principle,
your model, the logical flow of the whole book. (This
is usually the biggest issue with non-fiction books
and potentially the biggest editing expense if the
editor needs to resolve this for you.)
- content: areas that need more explanation
or examples, the strength of arguments, how accessible
your advice is for your audience
- style: your voice, your register
(formal, natural, informal), and how the writing will
work for your target readers

Working
with Megan has been a turning point for the book,
as she’s sought from the very start to bring
the absolute best out of the material and my writing.
She’s an enthusiastic and joyous brand ambassador
who works with immense integrity and significant
passion for the craft, while never losing sight
of the business aims the book is written to achieve.
