Full Manuscript Developmental Collaboration with Lidia Yuknavitch
Dear beloved humans who have a complete book manuscript on their hands and are looking for developmental readers:
Lidia Yuknavitch is taking on a small handful of manuscripts November through December—there are three slots for each month. Fiction, nonfiction, or hybrids.
January spots are sold out.
Lidia provides:
close reading of up to 300 pages
a substantive editorial letter between 10-12 pages with suggestions for revision and concrete strategies for implementing them.
one-hour long Zoom or phone session to ask follow up questions, brainstorm ideas, and plan your next steps—including query letter strategies. (you will receive a recording of this meeting afterward)
guarantee of receiving your manuscript back within 8 weeks of turn-in date
Use the form below to register your interest and let us know about your page count, and then Daniel will reach out to you to coordinate. There are limited spots and manuscripts will be taken first come first serve!
RATES:
$2000 for up to 200 pages
$3000 for up to 300 pages.
You must submit a full draft. Meaning it is drafted beginning to end.
A PAGE is exactly what it will be the next time you turn in your manuscript—to your agent and then publisher: DOUBLE SPACED, 12 PT. FONT, 1” MARGINS.
We can split this into 2 payments if you need to do so, with the 2nd payment due by 2 weeks prior to your turn-in date. Initial payment due now to secure your slot. Sorry, but we can't extend into longer payment plan terms for this offering, nor do we have scholarships available.
NO refunds or cancellations. Your deposits are non-refundable.
Contact Daniel—registration@corporealwriting.com—with questions or to request a split payment.
