Ever After Press

Where heartbreaks become hardcovers.

And your truth gets the final word.


We’re not a traditional publisher — we’re a creative studio for truth-tellers and storytellers ready to turn lived experience into lasting legacy.

We don’t just say “we’ll publish your book.”
We say “we’ll help you become the kind of author who finishes the book — and knows what to do with it.”

Founded by Dr. Courtney Evans, bestselling author of Uncaged and the upcoming book Like My Mother Was, Ever After Press guides writers through the full arc of authorship: writing, editing, and publishing with integrity and intention.

Here, writing is reclamation. Editing is art. Publishing is legacy.

  • 1:1 Writing Mentorship & Story Development

    This is where we unearth the truth behind the story you’ve been afraid to tell.
    Together, we’ll turn the chaos into clarity — mapping your structure, developing your voice, and building the writing habits that bring your manuscript to life.

    You’ll learn to write with honesty, discipline, and emotional precision — not just to finish your book, but to finally own your story.

    Perfect for: writers in early or messy stages, memoirists, nonfiction authors, or anyone rewriting their next chapter.

    Includes:

    • Private coaching sessions (biweekly or monthly)

    • Story structure + voice development guidance

    • Chapter mapping + creative accountability

    • Feedback on pages and narrative direction

    You’ll leave with: a clear manuscript framework, a defined voice, and the confidence to keep writing the story that won’t leave you alone.

  • Developmental Editing, Story Strategy & Refinement

    This is where we polish the raw.
    You bring the pages — I bring the precision.

    We’ll deconstruct your manuscript to strengthen narrative structure, deepen emotional resonance, and refine your voice until every word feels deliberate.
    This isn’t mechanical editing — it’s storytelling surgery.

    Perfect for: finished or near-finished manuscripts, writers craving deep editorial partnership, or anyone preparing for publishing submission.

    Includes:

    • Developmental + line editing

    • Chapter-by-chapter notes and strategy sessions

    • Narrative analysis and pacing refinement

    • Polished query or proposal (optional add-on)

    You’ll leave with: a cohesive, elevated manuscript — the truest version of your story, ready for its next stage.

    INVESTMENT:

    Because every story — and every manuscript — is different, pricing for editorial packages varies based on word count and scope. Once I’ve reviewed your pages, I’ll provide a custom quote and timeline tailored to your project.

    FAQ:

    Is this for first-time writers?
    Yes. You do not have to be a pro. Just come with a story and a willingness to show up.

    Do I have to write every day?
    Nope. You write at your pace, but consistency is key. We create a rhythm that works for you.

    Can I add this program to another offer?
    Yes. The Editorial can be added as a high-level extension to any other package. Let’s build your journey your way!
