Specialising in Children's Book Publishing
My manuscript assessment services are not available at the moment while I'm setting up OneTree House.
I have had over 20 years experience in the publishing industry assessing works and helping writers to polish their manuscripts to an award-winning level.
I can provide:
-
constructive, comprehensive and honest feedback that will enable you to present only your best work for consideration by your chosen publishing house.
-
guidance on which publishing house to approach and how to go about it.
-
information on the publishing process or suggestions on how to self-publish if you wish.
There is, however, no guarantee that your work will be published at the end of this process.
Endorsements:
"The appraisal is very helpful and gives me lots to work on . . . I wouldn't hesitate to ask her to assess further manuscripts for me."

"She is well qualified to give constructive commentary to writers for children."
Penny Scown (Senior Editor - Scholastic NZ Ltd)
Thanks SO much for this feedback! It's exactly what I was needing and it is invaluable to have a second set of eyes look over the story and cover letter. I agree with everything you have written.
