Everyone at Salt & Sage was so helpful and professional in the process of querying, getting a quote, scheduling, and dealing with my sensitivity read. The read itself was through, kind, incisive, clear, and very helpful. Madison pinpointed areas I’d done well and, more importantly, areas she felt needed work, especially regarding my character’s internalized ablism and his family’s infantilization of him. She gave me resources, as well as specific quotes from my book that showed where I was portraying the issues she was educating me about. It truly helped me view his journey in another light and, I hope, helped me revise him into a character who better represents a person with a congenital limb difference.

Heba’s feedback was very helpful in writing a Somali family and being true to what their experiences would be as well as true to their faith. She not only critiqued what I’d written and gently challenged some of my base assumptions, she also sent me links for resources that might enhance my own understanding of this family’s experience. Truly invaluable insights from a true professional.
