If need feedback on a short story, novella, or novel and it falls under the umbrella of speculative fiction (fantasy, science fiction, horror, and dark fiction), I would love to talk to you. An overview read is less intensive than a proofread or a critique, and helps identify the big picture successes and general areas to focus on (like plot and character) rather than every comma-splice and typo. If you haven’t gotten to work with other writers or good beta readers, this may be a good route to go because it starts you on the process of improving your writing without drowning you in the details. While this service doesn't include line edits and notes on your manuscript, you will end up with my comprehensive critique form. I have been writing fiction seriously since 1997. I have sold several short stories, primarily to periodicals, and have written and edited two short story collections. I have been in a number of critique groups over the past 20 years, and have assisted fellow authors get their short stories and novels published. I'm available and happy to work on young adult, new adult, and adult fiction.
