LitSet Books
A literary reset for your manuscript--and your writing life.
Welcome to
LITSET BOOKS
​
Developmental editing, coaching, and courses for those writing upmarket, speculative, and genre fiction. Transform your manuscript and author career through a signature reset process—bringing clarity to the story, confidence to the author, and fellow writers to your writing community.
​
How can the
LITSET help you?
Maybe you’ve been told your manuscript isn’t ready, or that publishing is too competitive to even try. Maybe you’ve started to wonder if your dream of being an author is unrealistic.
​
I’ve heard those doubts, too—both from writers and from the industry itself.​ But the world needs your creativity. And writers now have options when it comes to publication paths.
I also know from experience that with thoughtful guidance, honest feedback, and steady support, writers can create books that stand out and build writing lives that last. That’s why I started LitSet Books.
Today, there are more tools than ever to help writers produce words quickly. But strong books are not built on speed alone. They are shaped through conversation, revision, and careful attention to voice. They grow from lived experience, emotional risk, and the willingness to keep going when the work feels uncertain.
​
My role is to help you see your manuscript clearly, understand what it needs, and make confident decisions about your next steps.
​
You’re not too late. In fact, there has never been a better time to write the story only you can tell. If you’re ready to take your manuscript and your writing life seriously, I would be honored to partner with you in the process.
​
The world needs your voice. And you deserve the time and space to develop it.

WHAT PEOPLE SAY
ERIN M.
Christine is an amazing editor and mentor. I hired her to help me edit and improve my first novel and it was a true pleasure working with her. She was insightful, supportive and honest with her feedback - she helped me improve my writing, plot, characters and everything in between. On top of that, she was reliable, organized and wonderful to work with in such an intimate setting (because let's be real - writing is something we all hold close to our hearts).
SARA G.
Working with Christine was such an impactful experience. When I first met her, my now-published book was only a journal entry and she was able to help me throughout the writing process to urn that journal entry into a cohesive story. Her feedback was prompt, unique to my individual writing style, and in moments of doubt and uncertainty, she was there motivating me to keep writing. Christine is such an amazing writing coach and editor and I feel so lucky to have had the opportunity to work with her!

CATHY D.
I can't think of any writer I know who doesn't begin to question their novel in the back half of the book. Christine's Finish Your Novel class helped to answer so many of those questions, providing enough structure to get started with the inspiration to create an emotional connection with the reader. Like all of her classes, Christine provides actionable feedback that makes the work better with enough positivity to ensure you keep writing unitl you have something you love.

The moment I connected with Christine over Zoom for a consultation, I knew she was the right editor for me. We totally clicked and her developmental edit on my manuscript was incredible. She 100% saw my vision for the book, and her edits and notes felt like missing pieces to the puzzle. She understood my voice, what I was trying to say, and how to get my book in fighting shape to query agents. I'm eternally grateful to her as a pubslihed author herself, and I'd point every writer friend her way.
