Reader report
About this concert
I will evaluate your manuscript with compassion and honesty, delivering an insightful evaluation. I am a published author, journalist and critic.
I know the feeling of showing others your work. I have the frustration of getting stuck. I have been a novice. I have my foot in the door. I have published two literary novels and a self-published detective novel. I worked as a film/travel journalist and have reviewed crime novels. I have a master's degree in film and have worked in the film industry; I know a good story when I see one.
I want to build your manuscript and develop your strengths. You can count on me to clear the path to your creativity and success.
I look at plot, characterization, tone, tension, dialogue, structure, chapter length (starting and ending points), continuity, pacing, and target audience. I will find inconsistencies.
They picked my first manuscript out of the slush pile; I'll give you tips on how to grab the editor's or readers' attention with your first few chapters. If you wish, I can help you with your cover letter.
I love my fellow authors and am a voracious reader; It will be a pleasure to work together.
