New Story Consultation Options Now Available! 📖✨
Hey friends!
I’m excited to announce that my one-on-one story consultation sessions are now open on Calendly!
As a literary agent with Barbara Bova Literary Agency, award-winning author, and former International Publishing Specialist, I’ve spent more than two decades in publishing. I’ve reviewed thousands of manuscripts and queries, mentored hundreds of writers, led writing conferences, and spoken at numerous others around the country. I’ve also helped shape stories that have reached readers in 160 nations around the world. My own novels, The Covered Deep (featured in USA Today and Writer’s Digest) and Within the Veil, have earned national awards—including a $20,000 prize—and glowing reviews from Romantic Times and Publishers Weekly.
Whether you’re stuck in the middle of your novel, need fresh eyes on your opening chapters, want to deepen your characters, tighten your plot, polish your prose, or get honest market feedback, these sessions are designed to give you practical, encouraging, and highly specific guidance tailored exactly to where you are in your writing journey.
If you’ve been wanting professional insight from someone who sees thousands of manuscripts every year and truly understands both the creative and commercial sides of publishing, this is your chance.
Important Disclaimer: These story consultation sessions are completely separate, paid services offered only to writers who are not my agency clients. If you are seeking literary representation by me, or hope to query me in the future, please do not book a consultation. Consistent with AALA guidelines, I do not charge clients or potential clients any reading, evaluation, or other fees for services related to literary representation. Additionally, I am unable to represent authors who have received a paid story consultation from me. My agency work is compensated solely through standard commission on sales.
However, if you’re not seeking representation and would simply like expert, one-on-one feedback to take your story to the next level, I would love to work with you!
Spots are limited and filling quickly!

I can’t wait to dive into your story and help take it to the next level!
Let’s make your writing dreams a reality,
Brandy Vallance
