The Story Alignment
YOUR STORY MATTERS.
MAKE IT COUNT.
Struggling to finish your first draft? Have you revised yourself into a corner? Did your beta readers complain that "something feels off"?
And now you're thinking about ditching your draft and starting over from scratch?
Please don't do that. Your book isn't broken; it just needs a Story Alignment.
After your Story Alignment call, you’ll have a clear vision about how to nudge those "broken" pieces back into place so your story flows seamlessly.
““Claire Taylor has an incredible gift for helping authors figure out how to get that story train back on the track. She can help you articulate what your story needs to make it the best it can be. I can’t recommend her services highly enough.”

A one-on-one conversation via Zoom.
A source for expert feedback, instantly!
Open to all fiction genres — including erotic romance of all types!
Introvert friendly.
Totally confidential. Your story and ideas are safe with me.
Story Alignment is not…
A developmental edit. No manuscript needed!
An educational program. You’ll definitely learn something new, but this is a consulting service.

“Claire Taylor is a story ninja. Her ideas and story solutions are innovative and super helpful. I haven’t ever consulted with anyone who could jump into a story as fast and thoroughly as Claire. She helped me work through a story point that had hung me up for weeks, and she did it in thirty minutes. Like I said, ninja.

Story is my superpower
I’m bad at a lot of things, but storytelling is not one of them.
I’ve professionally edited 200+ fiction manuscripts, and published 20+ fiction books of my own. I even challenge myself to read 100+ books a year.
I’m officially obsessed with story.
My favorite part of Story Alignments is helping authors create books that readers will pick up again and again.
I’m here to help you turn casual readers into lifelong fans.
““I appreciated that she checked how much I was willing to change in the stories and made her suggestions based on that.” ”
Your story will always be yours.
A Story Alignment isn't a hostile takeover of your creative vision. Instead, through my (dare I say?) insightful questioning and suggestions, you'll wrap up the call feeling like you knew the answer the whole time - and you did! Unlocking it is always the tricky part.
The creative solutions you leave with will feel natural, maybe even obvious (after the fact, of course), and will resonate with you and your story.
And the credit for pulling off a fantastic tale fans read over and over again . . . will be all yours.
