Give Your Manuscript 'Agent-Ready' Polish by Craig Allen Heath


Love this review of The Author's Checklist by Craig Allen Heath on Medium.com. 

In the review, Heath says, "Every writer who cares about craft has a selection of resources on their desk: Dictionary, Thesaurus, style guide, perhaps Margaret Atwood’s On Writers and Writing or Ray Bradbury’s Zen in the Art of Writing. Elizabeth Kracht’s The Author’s Checklist belongs on that shelf, nestled cheek-by-jowl with past greats. It’s a working book, a fine tool to be used on each and every manuscript, to give it the shine it deserves just before we send it out into the unforgiving world of publishing."

Elizabeth Kracht Interview on 'The Simplifier Podcast'


I had a great time interviewing with Mary Baird-Wilcock on The Simplifier Podcast. Mary's listeners are largely made up of entrepreneurs, so we spent some time talking about how writing a book might benefit someone's brand and the first steps to consider when writing a book. We also talked a little bit about my newly released The Author's Checklist: An Agent's Guide to Developing and Editing Your Manuscript.
