Are you writing a Short Story?  Now  I offer service for Short story writers as for the other services, the fees are flat.

Edits / Proofread for Short Stories: $30.00

Critiques for Short Stories: $30.00

( If you are not able to pay in full, the payment for any service can be made on installment - divided in half. If you would like to use my service, let me know whether you need  to pay on installment or can pay in full. I am willing to be flexible.)

Some people request edits and critiques together. If a writer wants both, to me this says the writer is not completely confident his or her script is ready. So I  recommend getting the critique first. Use the critique to redo the script. Once the script is just right, then request the edit.

However, there are script, screenplay, writers who insist on having both an edit and critique together.  So I offer an edit and critique combo at discount.

Edit &Critique Combo Discount: $66.00   This is a discount savings of $40.00

All payments are received by Paypal. If you cannot make Paypal payments you may mail payments in the form of cashier checks or money orders. NO personal checks

How To Write Thriller & Horror Novels

Deader Reader,

Following are listing of books that can help in writing. I strongly advise purchasing learning materials to guide you in your writing.

A doctor can't be a doctor without studying medical books. An accountant can't be an accountant without studying the principles of accounting. Like wise a writer can't become a good writer without reading writing resource materials and published books of other well known writers. I know books cost money and it takes time to read them, but  studying is essential, and you must apply what you learn to  forming your novel. Then you will begin to have writing success.

Often writers get caught up with trying to be perfect. While spelling and grammar are important for the craft of writing, writing success is often found through the art of writing-and that comes through learning how to stand out from the crowd (in a good way). 

How does a writer stand out from the competition and still make an amazing first impression? That's exactly what literary agents Holly Root and Barbara Poelle will discuss during their 90-minute live webinar Slush Pile Showdown: How to Make Your Submission Stand Out. 

Learn how to write a query that will stand out in a good way and help you find success. Plus, attendees are invited to receive a live critique of their queries.
