For years, I’ve been so focused on my publishing company, TMP Books, that I rarely promote the a la carte services I offer, which include the critiquing of manuscripts.
Do you have an upcoming writer's conference, contest, or submission to an agent or publisher? My fiction critiques focus on: POV issues, plot points, settings, active and passive writing, showing vs. telling, dialogue, flow, characterization, pacing, tenses, grammar, and more! My nonfiction critiques focus on: structure, story, takeaway, marketability, tenses, grammar, and more. (For clarity purposes, critiques are not edits, although I do offer editing services too. Critiques are more of an assessment than the depths of editing, but can help you with self-edits before paying for editing services.)

My Critique Prices are:
$50, critique of 2500-word article or chapter
$100, critique of standard two or three page synopsis, and the first three chapters of your book (10,000 words or less)

I also offer other services as well, so if you have other editorial needs or publishing questions, visit TMP Books then send me an email to discuss your writing and publishing needs.

“Tracy gives you her best. She edits, polishes, and makes your book the best it can be. If you are a writer with a story that must be told, you will find that Tracy Ruckman is all about that! ”— Alma L. Carr-Jones ~ Author of 12 books, including Excelsior, Renewal of Joy, and Get Yourself Up

“I recommend Tracy's whole range of services - editing, formatting, publishing, marketing and whatever else you need. But especially the editing. I've seen how she can help you turn a mediocre work into something worth reading, and she does it while encouraging and supporting you as the author and creator.” — Phee Paradise ~ Author of A Sincere Heart and Miracle at Midnight
“I know the owner personally. She’s a best friend. She knows the industry. She was once my traditional publisher. I know she’s honest and fair, and I know her heart. She’s one of the gatekeepers that helps indie publishers set a higher standard. She’s going to be truthful with you about your work. She’s going to edit it and polish it and make it the best it can be for the writer. And she’ll be honest with you and tell you if you’re not ready to publish.
She doesn’t overcharge, and she doesn’t overprice a book once it’s published.” — Fay Lamb ~ author of 18 books, including Wandering Soul, Charisse, and Stalking Willow
