manuscript & coaching services
Welcome to my Query & Manuscript Services page! I'm so pleased to be able to provide critique services to others!
Why choose Tif?
I'm a veteran Army officer with a Bachelors in Nursing and a Master in Public Administration in Healthcare Management. I am a Filipino-American, traditionally published author of 3 romance novels and 2 contemporary romance novels, with her sixth book upcoming in 2021. Before I was agented and published, I spent many years in the query trenches, and all the while I critiqued and beta read other authors' manuscripts. What this all means: I'm empathetic, hardworking, deadline-oriented, communicative, and honest. Take a look at my press kit here.
