Expert Guidance for Characters & Plot

You've poured your soul into crafting a world with vibrant characters and intricate plotlines. Your characters live and breathe in your imagination – their quirks, desires, and flaws. Your story is filled with twists, turns, and a unique vision.

Are You Facing These Creative Roadblocks?

  • Translating that vibrant inner world onto the page, creating characters that feel real and truly captivate your readers.

  • Worried readers won't connect deeply with your characters, understand their motivations, or root for their journey.

  • Unsure if every plot thread truly weaves together seamlessly, or if readers will follow every twist and turn.

  • That nagging whisper: "Will this all make sense? Will my narrative be as cohesive and captivating as I envision?"

You've built an incredible world. It's time to ensure it leaps off the page and into your readers' hearts.

Every unconvincing character arc or confusing plot turn risks disconnecting your reader.

The Hidden Costs of an Unrefined Manuscript:

  • Reader Disengagement: Characters that fall flat or plots that confuse lead to readers putting your book down, perhaps never picking up your next.

  • Missed Emotional Impact: Your story deserves to evoke strong emotions. Weak character development or plot holes dilute that vital connection.

  • Negative Reviews: An unpolished narrative can result in critical feedback that impacts your book's long-term success and your author reputation.

  • Wasted Creative Energy: You've invested immense time and passion. Without critical insight, that effort might not fully translate into a compelling reading experience.

  • Lost Opportunities: A truly immersive, polished book builds a dedicated readership, opens doors to more opportunities, and establishes your voice in the literary world.

Imagine the confidence you'll feel knowing that your characters are unforgettable and your plot is rock solid!

“I appreciate so many things about Kim. She has a depth and breadth of knowledge that allows her to think big picture as well as focus on the small details. She also has a broad understanding of what it takes to bring an author from having an idea to holding a book in their hands and she offers a number of services to help authors on their writing and publishing journeys. On a recent project, she made a number of suggestions that helped my client showcase his expertise as a thought leader and visionary in his field. Kim's superpower is the ability to help an author bring their work from good to great.”
