Writing a book is rarely a one-conversation challenge.
Private Author Advisory is Reed Press’s highest level of support, designed for authors seeking ongoing editorial guidance, strategic publishing insight, accountability, and direct access throughout the writing and publishing process.
This is not traditional coaching. It is a limited-capacity advisory relationship for authors who want an experienced publishing professional in their corner as their manuscript evolves.

- Ongoing editorial guidance and manuscript feedback

- Query letter and submission support
- Accountability and project planning
- Strategic feedback on author platform development
- Direct email access between sessions
- Priority scheduling to fit your schedule
Limited Availability
Private Author Advisory is intentionally limited to a small number of authors at any given time.
Applications are reviewed individually, and participation is offered by invitation following an initial conversation.
