As a former editorial intern for Page Street Publishing, Entangled Publishing, and McIntosh & Otis Literary Agency, I have experience evaluating Middle Grade, Young Adult, and Adult (primarily romance) manuscripts across all genres.

Services
I offer manuscript critiques at $0.01 cents a word (i.e. $500 for a 50,000 word manuscript). I’ll read your full manuscript and write a detailed edit letter (usually 5-7 pages) outlining strengths and areas for improvement in your story, along with suggestions for revisions.
Testimonials
“Aimee immediately identified exactly what my manuscript needed. She saw my story had a dreaded ‘sagging middle,’ and gave me actionable tips on how to tighten the plot, and fix the pacing. Her character suggestions were also spot on, and her feedback helped make the main characters less passive, and have more of an emotional arc. She also encouraged me to insert more twists, betrayals, and hidden agendas, which made the story so much more thrilling. Aimee was invaluable in making my manuscript the best it could be before submitting it to agents and publishers–and it ended up selling at auction, for six figures. If you are looking to take your manuscript to the next level, you need to contact Aimee. I can’t recommend her and her editorial services enough.” – Alex Aster, #1 NYT bestselling author of Lightlark
