Query Critiques
I bring an agent’s eye to your query package, offering reviews of your query letter, synopsis, or first five pages — or all three!
Picture Book Critiques
Picture books may be short, but they’re certainly not simple! I help you elevate the stories you tell your children into picture book manuscripts that will captivate children everywhere.
What Authors Are Saying
Lisa’s critique of my picture book FAR exceeded my highest expectations. With “stories from the heart”, it can be so hard to find the balance of showing care and giving constructive feedback. Lisa was able to simultaneously champion the strengths of my story and give thorough feedback that provided needed insights into the industry. With her support, I was able to elevate my story (and my writing skills!) to a new level. I am deeply grateful and I would absolutely seek a critique from her again!
