What I do.

There are a number of ways in which I offer help to writers and their stories.

You can elect to have me read your entire Manuscript, if you feel you have a draft ready to go, and I will respond with structural suggestions as well as a line edit, if this is required.

I also offer a synopsis read, if you just want me to have a quick scan of the synopsis and look for any holes or inconsistencies in the stoytelling I can see.

You might already feel fairly confident about your book, and are looking to submit to agents or publishers - in which case you could ask me to review your query letter, opening pages and synopsis.

And for people still in the thick of working on their stories, I am now offering a Mentoring package, in which I read a series of eight submissions of 10,000 words each within an 8 month period, and offer suggestions as to Story directions and dropped stitches along the way.

Finally, if you are craving a bit of society, you might consider joining one of my Groups, which take place in Lewes, East Sussex, and are capped at 5 writers a group, so they sell out fast! But I can always put you on a waiting list, if you are interested, for when a space appears.
