Picture Book Critique Services

Kelly’s critiques are always so thoughtful, thorough, and encouraging–10/10! I especially love the read-aloud combo. Not only does it help me gain a new perspective on the story, but having the manuscript read in an Aussie accent is just fabulous!

I was delighted to win a picture book critique and audio read through from Kelly through #PBParty. Kelly’s written feedback was thoughtful and encouraging, with a great balance of actionable-insights and warm support. I was initially intimidated by the idea of an audio recording, but it was an incredibly positive experience! Kelly’s narration brought my story to life in a whole new way. Kelly’s critique set me up for success, and I highly recommend her.

I have only participated in a writing critique group with Kelly for a short while. But I have always found her advice and tips on my manuscripts to be very insightful. 

Matt Samuel

Kelly and I have been in a critique group for years and always value her feedback. She has a good eye for finding where a manuscript needs clarity and also has great knowledge of both the Australian and US children’s book scenes.

As a critique partner, Kelly’s feedback has always been invaluable. She has a great eye for educational content and making manuscripts work for the overseas market.
