About Me

Penname: RikScott
Location: 
Fremont, California
Name: 
Richard W Scott
Preferred language: 
English
School: 
University of San Francisco, BS Organizational Development
About me: 

I have been writing for a long time, and actually thought of myself as serious about it.  That was until I joined WEbook and discovered what really working at it meant.  Writing is the hardest "occupation" I have ever had, and the most fulfilling.

NaNoWriMo is over for another year.  Whew! 

Now back to our regularly scheduled programs.

I will be happy to read and review your work as time permits, but PLEASE understand, only ask me to look if you want an honest TECHNICAL review.  While I appreciate good content, I am especially interested in good grammar, punctuation, spelling, and the PACE of your story.
My claim to fame: 
No fame here, but I have been lucky enough to meet and befriend many good writers here at WEbook.
