Revision
Roadmap
You know something isn't working.
You just can't get far enough outside your own outline to see what.
For four weeks, I read your outline the way I'd read a manuscript for a Manuscript Diagnostic — looking for what's not landing, where the structure quietly gives out, and what your story keeps promising that it isn't paying off. I mark it up in detail, right on the page. Then we get on a call and work through it together.
This isn't a full manuscript edit, and it isn't an accountability check-in. It's a compressed, high-contact revision-planning process for writers who already have an outline — even a messy one — and want structural clarity before they spend another six months revising the wrong scenes.

Cadence: weekly for 4 weeks
Includes: review of your book outline with inline notes and a 50-min brainstorming/problem-solving call each week
Investment: $2000
Best for: revising novelists
How it works
Monday — You send me your current outline, however "as-is" it really is.
Tuesday — I read it closely and leave inline comments directly in the document, flagging every place the structure isn't holding.
Wednesday or Thursday — We meet for 50 minutes. This isn't a status update; it's where we actually work through what I found and solve it together.
The rest of the week — You revise before the next round starts.
Four rounds. Four weeks. By the end, you'll have a sharpened, workable outline you trust enough to revise from on your own — built collaboratively, tested weekly, shaped around what your story actually needs.
What’s included
Revision Roadmap is 1:1 — never group — and runs three times a year, in a small number of spots per window, so I can give each novel real attention and keep the weekly calls sustainable:
Winter — mid-January to mid-February
Spring/Summer — June
Fall — October
Investment: $2000
Revision Roadmap Is Ideal For Writers Who:
You have a complete draft — even a rough one — with or without an outline (yet)
You know something in the structure isn't working, but can't quite isolate what
You want real diagnostic pressure applied to your plan, not encouragement toward a finish line
You can work fast and revise between sessions
Not Ideal If:
You're starting from a blank page with no draft or outline yet
You're looking for line-level prose editing
You want open-ended, ongoing support rather than a contained sprint
Ready to go deeper with your story? Apply for Revision Roadmap.
The application takes a few minutes. Tell me where your manuscript stands and what you think isn't working yet — if it's not the right fit, I'll tell you and point you somewhere better.
Not sure where to start?
If none of these quite fit — but you still think we should work together — tell me where you're at and what you're working on. Let's figure out together whether there's a way I can help.
