The First Step

My Expert Touch

My Expert Touch

No matter where you are in the process, it's the right time to reach out. I can help you outline & flesh out the message of the book before you begin, help you become "unstuck" & motivated again to write, or just dive into the manuscript as a co-writer or developmental editor.

My Expert Touch

My developmental edits include substantial line edits, a full mark up on your manuscript of what's needed to get the manuscript in it's best shape, and often I have made these changes for you. My editorial letter explains what I did & why and provides a clear roadmap to your next steps. 

Coaching

My Expert Touch

Coaching

Coaching sessions can be designed for accountability, to outline next steps and adhere to a schedule, to improve as a writer, to co-write material together, strategize platform or speaking engagements or otherwise move forward with your writing and career goals.  

 Clients say they feel reinvigorated after these meetings. 

Fees and Location

      An average nonfiction manuscript (50,000 words) starts at $3100 for a full mark-up with corrections, an editorial letter explaining my work and outlining next steps, and a meeting to discuss next steps.

Fiction work begins at $2800 for 50,000 words.  

      A read through of the same size manuscript (50,000 words) without edits but with an accompanying editorial letter explaining what needs to be worked on and comments in the manuscript starts at $1500. 

If you live in Seattle, I can meet with you in person at my office in the Fremont neighborhood on North Lake Union. If you are not local, or prefer to work virtually, consultations can occur via the telephone, Skype, Zoom, Teams, or email.

Dammit Corbin, you’re brilliant. Love (and hate) your edits –  exactly what I’ve been trying to do, but have been unable to see/do. I feel hopeful that with your help, this could be a book worth reading.

Thank you again. You've been a true professional - helpful with suggestions yet respectful of the writer's voice. I hope to meet you in person when this book takes off!!
