Services

I have partnered with Randolph Lundine to provide the following services (except for coaching). For pricing and specifics, you can visit their website here.

Scholarly Services

Scholarly writing is still writing. As a former senior acquisitions editor at a university press, I can help your monograph become the best it can be prior to final submission to a scholarly publisher. Whether you need help navigating peer review reports, writing to your audience, or honing your argument and throughline, I am all about it and ready to dive in. For edited volumes, I can help editors and authors find cohesion and consistency among diverse chapters.

Coaching

Interested in more ongoing collaboration? I can help you set writing goals and deadlines as well as be a second set of eyes. This service offers more periodic communication, feedback along the way, and just a little bit of cheerleading to help you get to that last sentence.

If you’re interested in learning more about scholarly publishing, this might be a good place to start. I can provide guidance and elucidation on the submission and publication process to a university press as well as advice on selecting the appropriate publisher for your manuscript. The secret? It’s all about fit.

Proposal Development

Proposals are how you share your book idea with the toughest of audiences—agents and editors. Our proposal services at Randolph Lundine will help you develop, draft, and revise a submission-ready proposal. No matter where you are in the proposal process—concept, draft, or final draft—I can help you brainstorm and craft a proposal that matches not only your book idea, but also a publisher’s expectations.

Dissertations

Are you ready to revise your dissertation for publication? I can help you find the book within. Whether you’re ready to write the proposal or are just starting your book draft, my experience working with first-time academic authors will be a boon to you as you ready your scholarship for a wider audience.
