Manuscript Evaluations, Editing, and Coaching
Written a first draft and want some feedback on it? Need a line-by-line edit? Completed an outline, a first chapter and a last chapter, but don't know where to go from there? Playing with a half-written manuscript that you're not sure merits your continued efforts?
If your manuscript is aimed at a child or teen audience and you're looking for some honest and practical feedback, I may be able to help. I offer reasonable rates.
I have experience writing picture books, graphic novels, chapter books, juvenile and young adult novels, as well as non-fiction children's books. Please send me a query, describing your project and what kind of assistance you require, and we'll see what we can work out.
If you're interested, please Contact Me.
"Susan Hughes has critiqued three of my picture-book stories in the past year. With her comments in mind, I did my revisions and sold all three! Susan’s insightful comments help bring a project closer to acceptance. In the competitive world of children's book publishing, one needs such incisive assistance."
