✅Professional Manuscript Assessment

I’ll personally read and assess your manuscript or sample chapters (3+). You’ll receive detailed feedback on:

  • Clarity & structure – Does the book flow logically from start to finish?

  • Message & purpose – Is your core message strong and clearly defined?

  • Marketability – Will this resonate with your intended audience?

  • Readiness – Are you truly ready to publish, or do you need more editing?

You’ll also get written notes highlighting strengths, areas for improvement, and whether your book is a fit for self-publishing, hybrid, or traditional publishing.

📩 You’ll receive your review within 5–7 business days.

🧭 Your 30-Minute Publishing Strategy Session

Once your manuscript has been reviewed, we’ll meet one-on-one via Video call to:

  • Walk through my review and answer your specific questions

  • Discuss your best publishing path: self-publishing, hybrid, or traditional

  • Explore timelines, next steps, and essential tasks before publishing

  • Share industry insights to help you position your book for credibility and impact

  • Recommend resources and professionals if your manuscript needs polishing

    This is a quick, high-value working session, not a sales pitch. You’ll walk away with:

    • Clarity on the publishing process

    • A personalized action plan

    • Confidence that you’re heading in the right direction

This is For You If...

  • You’ve finished your manuscript (or almost!) but feel unsure if it’s good enough

  • You’ve started writing but don’t know how to shape your content into a publishable book

  • You want professional guidance without committing to full publishing services just yet

  • You feel overwhelmed by the publishing options and want a clear, strategic path forward

  • You want to avoid costly rookie mistakes and make informed decisions from the start

  • You need someone experienced to tell you, “This works — this doesn’t — here’s what to do next.”

Hi, I’m Athena C. Shack — publisher, book coach, and founder of Watersprings Publishing.

I’ve spent the last decade helping faith-driven leaders, visionaries, and everyday storytellers publish powerful, purpose-filled books.

I’ve authored 7 books, published over 200, and helped more than 400 aspiring authors transform their ideas into manuscripts, their manuscripts into published books, and their books into impact-driven brands and businesses.

With over 20 years of experience in marketing, ministry, and publishing, I know how overwhelming the publishing journey can feel — especially when you don’t know where to start or who to trust.

That’s why I created this Manuscript Review + Strategy Session. You deserve a trusted guide who can give you honest feedback, a real plan, and encouragement.

Let’s make sure your message is ready to change lives — starting with yours.
