Book Proposal Editing
& Consulting

You’re getting ready to submit a book proposal—one of the more nerve-racking parts of the publication process. I can provide written or oral feedback to help you revise your proposal or your full proposal package (your proposal and sample chapters) for submission. I provide thorough feedback on all sections of the proposal, paying special attention to how you convey your argument and its stakes.

Book Proposal Consultation

A Zoom consultation focused both on helping you to refine your book’s argument, structure, or key concepts and on helping you to skillfully use each section of the proposal to showcase your book’s unique contributions.

Book Proposal Editing

Intensive line editing to help your ideas resonate with and make sense to your target readers. Sentence- and paragraph-level editing for clarity and flow and feedback on making effective use of each section of the proposal.

Proposal Package Assessment

Developmental feedback on your book’s argument & organization (as revealed through the proposal). And macro- and micro-level recommendations for your proposal and each sample chapter, to help you to effectively revise your proposal package for submission.
