“Working with Shellah has been such a pleasure! She has helped me see the overview of my story from other angles and helped me develop a more engaging, page-turning story that hits home. Her communications and feedback have been professional, constructive, and very implementable.”

Working with Shellah was a wonderful experience! When I sent along my novel, I knew it had issues that needed to be addressed, and she went above and beyond in diagnosing and offering solutions to them. The feedback was thorough, well thought out, and in-depth, which showed a true understanding of the story and what readers would want from the novel. Her advice was given in a way that not only benefitted the story but provided insight that could be used in the future. If you want to take your writing to the next level, working with Shellah is invaluable!

"Shellah was everything you didn't know you really needed as a writer until you had her. She had an eye for detail that took me right to the source of the speed bumps in the story I wanted to tell. Every step was actually breathtaking and reassuring on my journey into writing, and I am more excited now about my novel because of her!"

"Shellah was brilliant in helping me refine my story ideas, shape my narrative, and helping to identify plot and character inconsistencies in my story. The book is so much better for her inputs, suggestions and ideas.”

"Shellah provided a thoughtfully considered beta read of my manuscript with practical insights conveyed honestly and with integrity. She understood my errand as a writer and immersed herself in the text. She also provided invaluable consultation beforehand that helped me to determine which of her services would be the most useful for my current stage of development. I will absolutely work with her again."
