“Plot, pacing, character, world-building, writing style. Fantasy, humor, contemporary, literary, commercial, graphic novel, middle grade, or YA. Jim Thomas has the editorial chops to tackle them all. Jim uses brains and heart, logic and intuition to inspire writers to do their absolute best, and then go the steps beyond their best that they didn’t know possible. I cannot recommend him more highly, for both a top-level finished book and for the process that brings it there.”
