EDITING

Do you want to publish your writing, but know that it lacks the flare and drop-dead beauty necessary to interest professional editors, agents and publishers? I can help you. I've been an editor and creative writing teacher for 30 years. I've helped many wannabe writers become published and PAID authors. My novels have been published by Berkley, TSR and ACE/Berkley. I've written numerous short stories that have appeared in such magazines as AMAZING STORIES. I've sold my books to Hollywood. I have been there, in this world of publishing, all my professional life.

So, how is my writing/editing program different?

Simple. While editing your book, I teach you how to make your writing sparkle. I show you the techniques that you need to master to make your book or short story strong and publishable. Don't understand how to use correct Point-of-View? Do you have trouble writing convincing dialogue? Does your plotting plod along like an old horse pulling a plow?

The directions I offer relate to YOUR manuscript and are individualized to YOUR needs. They are not generic. This information can range from giving you examples of how you can rewrite parts of your story that need strengthening to brainstorming ideas to improve your plot. I also teach you how to write a synopsis. My method is proven to attract agents and editors. I am available via email for all your questions, and if you feel the need to call me, I will gladly assist you in understanding particularly challenging techniques.

I cannot, of course, guarantee that you will be published, but I do give you the tools, knowledge and first-hand experience you must have to make this dream come true.
