Lisa Rondinelli Albert
Writer - Reader - Speaker

I’m delighted to provide consultation and critique services on middle grade and young adult novels. I focus on the strengths and weaknesses of each manuscript and make recommendations for improving characterization, pacing, transitions, POV, consistency, continuity, and more.
What I’ll look for in your work:
Along with marking your hard copy with comments and suggestions, I’ll also provide recommendations for overall improvements and revision suggestions. When applicable, I may recommend authors and/or titles to study for craft, voice or genre. In addition, I’ll share my knowledge and insight of the market to offer submission advice when able.
While I do not offer line editing and copy editing, I will flag typos and mechanical errors as a perk as time allows.
All manuscripts must be formatted in industry standard submission-ready form.
