What happens next
A conversation, then a clear recommendation.
We will decide whether a short initial conversation is useful and, if appropriate, explain the manuscript critique and what it costs. The Review identifies an established-audience, reachable-niche or audience-to-prove route and recommends only the next sensible commitment. There is no pressure to commission the complete journey.
The right next step matters more than the biggest sale. It may be a designer-ready landing-page brief, a focused demand test, further manuscript work, a publishing-route decision or a decision to stop.
