contact for pricing

I analyze your book manuscript in its totality with an eye towards argument, structure and conceptual organization, and voice. I highlight patterns in vocabulary, syntax, and paragraph structure in terms of how they can best develop your argumentation. You receive an initial consultation call about the kind of feedback you want at this juncture of your project; a pdf mark-up of the document; a detailed memo synthesizing the mark-ups into remarks about the strengths and challenges of the document, as well as an outline for a provisional plan for revision; a half hour call to discuss implementation.
