At this time, I have a four-week turnaround on up to 75,000 words. I offer a free five-page sample read. My first three clients will receive a $25 discount off of the $75 normal price. If interested, send an email to jennifer@jenniferhallmark.com.

Testimonial:
“It is remarkable how a fresh perspective can enhance one’s work! Jennifer’s critique was invaluable and exceptionally beneficial. She pointed out errors that I had missed despite my many revisions. Jennifer certainly has an eye for all the little nuances within the craft and has her finger on the pulse of literary trends. Trust me, you will not regret her critique services regardless of your current phase in the writing process.“–A.S. Hardin, manuscript The Tainted Treasure, Fantasy.
About me: I write Southern fiction with a twist. My website and newsletter focus on my books, love of the South, and favorite fiction. I love reading and streaming science fiction, fantasy, and mysteries or my favorite subject—time travel.
I’ve been writing and studying the writing craft since 2006 with over fifty books on writing in my library. I’ve been part of numerous critique groups and worked with editors like Eva Marie Everson and Marcie Bridges. I’m an avid reader and read 100 + books a year in multiple genres. I’m also a Mentor with Word Weavers International and on the board of trustees of my local library.
