The Toe Dip

$27.00 $37.00

For writers facing imposter syndrome and drowning in self-doubt

Every book sitting on a shelf somewhere did not start as a beautiful, polished piece of fiction.

It started as pages that needed work. Even the best authors have common writing pitfalls. The difference? They have an awareness of their writing and can catch it before it becomes a problem.

The Toe Dip offers support to writers who are uncertain what to look for as they review their pages. Are they unconsciously info dumping or keeping it all to themselves? Is the dialogue supporting what is happening or slowing it down? Whether you have a full manuscript or just a few chapters, it is frustrating to revise without knowing what needs attention.

The Toe Dip will shine a light on common manuscript problems*, so you can revise your pages with confidence and send your self-doubt packing.

What You Get:

  • Submission of Pages up to 1500 words**
    A deep read of the submitted pages examining for common mistakes often found in early drafts. Pages must adhere to the following formatting guidelines: 12-inch Arial or Times New Roman font, double-spaced, with 1” margins.

  • Short Editorial Letter
    Concise, written feedback of the submitted pages including a breakdown of common mistakes found and actionable steps to help address them. Delivered within 3 business days of receiving your materials.***

*This assessment is for fiction genres and does not involve polishing grammar, copy, or line edits.

**Pages can be from anywhere in the manuscript, but should be part of a cohesive scene.

***Submission instructions are included with order confirmation.
