You're willing to do the work to make your book great.

You just need to know how.

Hi! I'm Olivia, your revision fairy godmother.


Instead of a ball gown that only lasts one night, you'll get a comprehensive revision plan that shows you exactly how to make your book the best it can be.


You can write a great book. 

I'm here to help. 



Here's how it works:

First, you'll send me an outline/synopsis, your full manuscript, and answers to a questionnaire.

Next, I'll review your materials and write an editorial report. 

Finally, we meet for 90+ minutes to create your revision plan.

Why a strategy session?
Isn't that what editing is for?

Developmental editing is great, but it's often a bad investment for beginning writers. Why? A developmental editor's job is to point out issues, but we don't rewrite the manuscript for you. If you don't know how to implement our feedback you can end up wasting thousands of dollars. 


Instead, a strategy session meets you where you are. Our call isn't just about making a future plan, we'll actually work through exercises to practice the critical skills that will take your story to the next level. 


It's like having an editor and private teacher rolled into one, without out the hefty pricetag of a long-term coaching package.

You don't just need feedback. You need a strategy.

Don't waste time chasing the one book/course/conference that will magically unlock your book.  Instead, I'll show you how to make your book better with clear, actionable next steps and targeted resources to show you the way.

Editing takes months. Let's get you started ASAP!

Great dev editors book out months in advance and once you're on their calendar, the edit itself can take weeks. If you're ready to revise, you can schedule at your convenience and we'll meet in as little as two weeks.

Don't revise alone. Support is an email away.
You won't be abandoned after your session ends. I'll be one email away whenever you have a question about your revision plan. Need more hands on support? I'm also available for ongoing coaching!
Professional feedback can be life changing.

But don't take my word for it.

Here's what some of my former clients have to say.
"Olivia is worth her weight in gold. Her feedback was positive, constructive, and actionable...she 'got' the story, including the parts I hadn't fully developed in my own mind."

Vasilisa Drake

Senior Journalist Author

"Olivia illuminated areas where the book could be improved and provided concrete suggestions for revision. More importantly she helped me see places where the book was already working and could be pushed further."

Kevin Daly

Aspiring Epic Fantasy Author

"Olivia's editorial eye is nothing short of exceptional: sharp, thoughtful, and deeply attuned to the heart of the story."

Maddison Dawn

Dark Fiction Writer

"Olivia is the best developmental editor I've ever had the privilege of working with, bar none... I cannot recommend her services enough."

Matt Savelloni

Screenwriter / Thrller Author

    Questions? 

    I've Got Answers!

    What times are you available?

    revision strategy sessions are available Tuesday evenings, all day Wednesday & Thursday, and select Saturdays. For a complete picture of my current availability, you can preview all available sessions here. Please note, you won't be able to book without paying. Discounts are ONLY available via Thrivecart!

    What do I need to submit to you?

    You'll need to submit three things to me ahead of time: 

    1. A synopsis or reverse outline of your novel (must be updated based on your current draft, not an outline you used to plan)

    2. Your full manuscript (does NOT need to be polished)

    3. Answers to a questionnaire that I'll send you once you book.

    What is your policy on rescheduling or cancelling?
    Life happens! Once you book your session, you'll get a link you can use to reschedule at any time. You won't be charged for rescheduling, especially if you need more time to prep your materials. If you decide that you no longer want to meet, no problem, just email me and I'll issue a refund.

    How soon can I meet with you?

    All bookings must be made at least 2 weeks in advance. All materials must be submitted at least one week before our session. Once you pay, you can book anytime. There's no rush, so make sure your outline/synopsis & manuscript are 100% ready before you schedule.

    What do I need to bring to our session?

    Just an open mind and all your revision questions. I'll send you feedback on the outline/synopsis & manuscript ahead of our call so that you can prepare any questions in advance. Once the call starts, we can adjust our agenda to meet your specific needs. 

    I have another question. How can I get it answered?

    Reach out with any and all questions to olivia@oliviahelpswriters.com. You can also DM me on Instagram @oliviahelpswriters if you prefer. I can't wait to hear from you and I'm happy to help!
