“Claire was a huge help when I was preparing my covering letter and synopsis. She responded promptly and was generous with her time and advice. Her comments were insightful and to-the-point and really helped me enhance my material. Getting Claire’s feedback meant that when I approached agents and publishers, I did so confident that my submission was as strong as possible.”
“Thank you for helping me prepare my documents and with my submissions strategy. My documents are definitely improved and much more streamlined, and I now feel I have a more all-round professional edge going ahead. I’m itching to get started! I would be very glad to encourage anyone interested in using your editing services.”
“Claire’s insight and advice was extremely valuable as I prepared my novel for submission to literary agents. She was flexible in tailoring around feedback I’d already received, and worked with me to address specific points within a tight timeframe. Claire’s suggestions were consistent and thorough, and she posed some useful questions around structure and characterisation. I’m delighted to now be represented by a literary agent and will be going out on submission to publishers later in the year.

“I knew my cover letter and synopsis were ineffective and holding me back in the querying process, but was totally lost on how to fix either of them. In a single email Claire was able to pinpoint the problems and provide the clear, specific suggestions I needed to turn both documents into ones I can now feel confident about submitting to agents! She completely renewed my hope and saved me from giving up entirely. My only regret is not seeking her guidance sooner. I highly recommend Claire’s expertise to any writer looking for help with their cover letter and synopsis! ”
“Many thanks, Claire, for your help in drafting the various documents needed for submitting my non-fiction book to a publishing firm. Your suggestions of what to include and what to leave out in an initial letter, one-page pitch and detailed table of contents have not only lifted my submission and enabled me to make it far more attractive but also boosted my confidence just when I needed it. Hopefully this will also lay the basis for drafting future submissions - but if I do need more advice I now know where to come!”
