How I Can Help
Research support for every stage of your manuscript.
Whether you need a fast answer or a research partner for the long haul, I help historical fiction writers get the details right so you can stay focused on the story.
RESEARCH SOS
Stuck on a detail and a deadline's looming? Send me a question and I'll get you an answer.
For when you hit a knowledge gap mid-draft, from a procedural detail to a custom you can't quite find, or a fact you can't move forward without. Send me your question or topic and I'll deliver an original, 1-3 page written brief within 48 hours.
$200 per scoped project
SCENE FACT-CHECK
A second set of eyes on a scene that's keeping you up at night.
Send a scene or chapter and I'll evaluate it against historical, technical, or procedural standards while checking for period plausibility and flagging anything that might pull a reader out of a story. You'll get original, written feedback with sourced citations, so you know not just what to fix, but why.
$150 for submissions up to 2,500 words. Longer submissions are welcome at $35 per additional 500 words.
AI RESEARCH AUDIT
Used AI to research a topic? Let's make sure it didn't hallucinate.
AI tools are fast, but they're also prone to hallucinations and invented sources. Send me your AI-generated research on a single topic and I'll assess source credibility and flag factual errors or gaps.

DEEP DIVE RESEARCH PACKAGE
Original, in-depth research on the topic your story needs. Built for your project, not pulled off-the-shelf.
Whether it's a historical profession, a legal custom, a medical practice, or a specific event, I evaluate primary and secondary sources for credibility and relevance, then synthesize findings into an organized research deliverable tailored to your project. Delivered as a written brief, reference document, or presentation, depending on what works best for how you draft.
