Coaching

I've had a lot of experience mentoring children's book authors, some of whom have gone to highly successful careers. I am available to analyze manuscripts for any age level - board book to young-adult - or to suggest strategies for breaking in. Please contact me if you are interested in having me help you write, revise, or submit a children's manuscript.

"Pamela's manuscript critique is a combination of inspired enthusiasm and an acute understanding of the fiction writer's toolbox. Her reading is spot on regarding what in my draft needs fixing and ways to do that. She brings to her commentaries a wealth of experiences with children's literature, a a depth of insight and her unique writerly intuition. I really feel she cares about the success of my work and the importance of getting it right; moreover, she spends the time to make that happen. Finally, she is generous with guidance about the publishing market. A gem of an editor and a pleasure to work with in every way."—Karen Propp, author

"Pamela Jane focused on what was good in my work, gave me super advice, then actually shared some of her own editor contacts with me. Suffice to say, Pamela knows what she's doing. My fifteenth book was just published; two more coming out next year."—Coleen Paratore, author, www.coleenparatore.com
