Before You Hit Send

$1,595

Your query, your synopsis, and your first 10 pages each do a different job — but are they telling the same story about the same book? This is the full package read: one agent's eyes on everything an agent will see, before any agent sees it.

What you get:

- Written notes on your query, your synopsis, and your first 10 pages

- A check that all three tell the same story about the same book — mismatches between documents are a silent request-killer

- Your complete Personal Query Workbook — hook rewrites, stakes map, graded comps, nine-second check, the First Page Autopsy, the synopsis chapter, and one master revision checklist for the whole package, in fix-first order

- A follow-up read of your revised query — revise with my notes, send it back within 90 days, and I'll re-read it and give you my verdict

- A 45-minute call with me to talk through your revisions and your querying strategy

This is for you if:

- You're about to query and want to get it right the first time

- You queried before, it didn't work, and you're starting a new round with a stronger package

- You want one agent's eyes on the whole thing instead of three separate reads that never talk to each other

What to send: Your query, synopsis, and first 10 pages in one document.

Turnaround: Written notes within 25 working days; your call is scheduled within 4 weeks of the notes. In a hurry? Add the 7-day rush at checkout (+$150).

Why writers book this: I receive 150+ queries a week. About 90% get rejected on page one. Around 2% get requested. This isn't a friend reading your letter — it's a working agent showing you exactly where your materials land inside that math, and how to move them.

I take on 6 reviews a month — total, across all review services. When the month's spots are gone, they're gone, and the listing closes until the 1st. If this page is live, there's a spot. If it's not, there isn't.

November spots: 6 of 6 left.

This is a paid review from me, Jessica Berg. It's separate from Rosecliff Literary, and it isn't an offer of or a path to representation.
