Children’s Book Consultation

Sometimes children’s book authors need a little nudge in the right direction. This is where a children’s book consultation might come in handy. I offer thirty minute and one hour consultations for writers of all levels. New authors may want to ask about format and genre standards, where to begin, or just bounce around some ideas. Veterans may have a query or synopsis they would like to discuss, or a section of their completed manuscript. I will evaluate up to 1000 words (30min) or 2500 words (1hr) of material before the call –– this might include a partial manuscript, query, synopsis, pitch, outline, or any materials that support your project.

Let’s chat about your book

Children’s Book Consultation for up to one hour to chat about your manuscript, synopsis, query. We can bounce around ideas, review your work in progress, talk about craft, format and genre. Or let’s talk about publishing options, such as self publishing vs traditional publishing, discuss market trends, or review your query letter or query package.

This is also a fantastic way to gather some general information on how to write a children’s book, or ask me anything if you are interested in writing for kids, but don’t know where to start.
