Is Your Manuscript Struggling? Check out my Free Ebook!
Hey there, fabulous writer!
You’ve got a story burning in your heart—but somewhere between chapter one and “The End,” things got a little…meh. Maybe your plot’s dragging. Maybe your characters are giving major cardboard energy. Or maybe there's just something that feels incredibly off, and you can't figure out why. Before you pull a Troy Bolton and sing dramatically about your feelings out on a golf course (actually, that might help...) give this little guide a chance! ;)
If we haven’t met already, allow me to introduce myself. I’m Olivia Lynn Jarmusch—author, story coach, and your sparkly manuscript bestie.
With twelve faith-filled YA novels under my belt and a heart that beats for creativity rooted in purpose, I’m here to help you dust off your story, find the flaws, and bring the fabulous.
As a Developmental Editor, I live for the deep dives.
Plot holes? Let’s fill ’em. Flat characters? We’ll give them a full-blown makeover, Sharpay style.
Weak theme? Not on my watch!
I want to help you understand why your manuscript isn’t working—and most importantly, how to fix it with style, confidence, and clarity.
Think of me as your stage manager to story success! Sharpay Evan’s wouldn’t settle for a boring draft, and neither should you. She’d strut into that editing room with a venti pink drink and a rhinestone pen, ready to demand excellence—and that’s what we’re all about!
Excellence. (AKA - fabulous!)
Editing can feel overwhelming. I get it. Rewriting big chunks of your story might make you want to, as Sharpay said, “stick pins in my eyes.” But trust me—once you know what’s not working and why, you’ll gain the power and clarity to make every word sparkle.
So grab your favorite notebook, cue the HSM Summer playlist, and let’s get to work.
It’s time to turn your manuscript from drab…
to FABULOUS. 💅
