In short

  • 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.

    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.

    PLEASE take a look at some of my previous reviews to make sure what I do is what you want.  A REALLY GOOD way to get me to check out your work is read some of mine.  I am currently showcasing Novels in my NUMBERS Series: FIVE http://www.webook.com/project/TC-RS and would appreciate reads and reviews.

  • Hmm.... He's not a "character", but writer Colin Wilson.  I'd like to experience a mind that can write a book that has something to make you stop, think, and wonder every couple of pages.
