Outline Assessment

You’ve got a brilliant story idea — but is your plot strong enough to carry it? Are your characters driving the tension? Are you setting yourself up for a clean first draft, or a structural mess?

The Outline Assessment is a strategic editorial service that helps you build a solid foundation for your novel. Before you spend months writing, make sure your story arc, pacing, and character arcs are working as they should.

Because the best way to revise less… is to plan smarter

Who This Is For

  • Writers with a story outline or detailed plot summary (2–10 pages)

  • Plotters who want a second pair of expert eyes

  • Pantsers who’ve finally wrestled their ideas into structure

  • Authors about to begin a first draft or major rewrite

What I Review

Structure & Pacing: Are story beats clear? Does the plot escalate? Is the midpoint doing its job?

Character Arcs: Do your characters change over time? Are their goals driving the plot?

Conflict & Stakes: Are stakes clear, personal, and rising? Is there enough tension to sustain the story?

Theme & Clarity: Are the emotional threads and themes supported by the plot structure?

Scene Flow: Does each event logically build on the one before it? Are there pacing gaps or clutter?

What You Get
