Unlock Your Magic

Nicole and Rebecca transform budding writers into dynamic professionals, and wild ideas into powerful books.

Your idea is big. Your characters are cool. Your tale is epic, innovative, and beginning to grow tentacles. But… is your story suitable for the world of publishing?

High-quality critique groups just don’t grow out of 4th dimension portals, but you’re still in need of pointed, encouraging, professional feedback.

Our job is not only to help you define the concepts and logistics of your story, but to put that know-how in your hands. We will help you create a stronger, smarter manuscript and build foundational blocks that will continue to guide you in your career as a writer.

Use Our Expertise To Your Advantage

For years, we’ve had our noses buried in science fiction and fantasy (and two noses are better than one) constantly reading, studying themes, and hunting down contemporary news. We’ve researched, blogged, marketed, plotted, drafted, edited, and queried our way into gaining unique insight into an extraordinary field of work. Sci-fi and fantasy has utterly stolen our hearts because of its ethereal ability to bring the human experience into focus using visionary stories. 

With one eye on the influence of classics, and one eye on the genre’s evolution, we can help identify where your work fits in, what will set it apart, and how to make it shine. 

What we bring you as SF & Fantasy specialists:

  • A professional editing experience sharpened by years of working on manuscripts just like yours
  • Broad proficiency with tropes, including what to avoid and what to update
  • In-depth understanding of the publishing landscape and process
  • An unparalleled passion for stories that communicate truth through the fantastical

Rebecca Zornow, author
I highly recommend Rebecca Zornow as a manuscript editor. She provided honest and comprehensive feedback. She commented on the overall tone and direction, then dove into the material line by line. Her suggestions made my book, “Flex the Freelance: An Unconventional Guide to Quit Your Day Job,” more potent. I will use her services for my next book.

Nicole possesses a ceaselessly probing and fascinating mind: she’s looking for answers where others aren’t even asking questions. Her work challenges, engages and enlightens. Best of all, Nic has vision—she approaches her own writing with a clear idea of what she means to accomplish and she respects and champions the vision of other artists.

Nicole is a great critique partner. Her feedback is insightful in ways that I never expect, and she always presents her comments in a way that inspires me to think about my work from a new angle. Her passion for the written word is clear in her devotion to the writing craft and her thorough feedback, regardless of the genre, of whatever she reads.

Rebecca provided astute and effective guidance and advice. She must have made an accurate assessment of my needs because I received just the tools I need to take next steps and the confidence to do so.

Not knowing what to fully expect when I started, I felt like I was being coached (one-on-one) by a college professor in a life-long writing course.

I wish I had hired Conquer Books years ago. I'm not exaggerating when I say that Nicole taught me every skill I was missing to write great stories. The editing she provides is also spectacular.
