about me
I have recently stopped coming here to read and edit, and to receive because it's proven a fruitless effort. Especially now that I get paid to do so. My first few chapters are the way I like them, and frankly how quite a few people like them. If you read further and have a genuine comment. Leave me a message, and I'll contact you about a return read and possible editing help. If not, don't bother.
I am a recent college graduate and have been writing and reading all of my life. I am currently working on several projects but mainly focusing on a fantasy novel, which I have been working on for a long time. I feel that I need help getting to an ending that isn't going to be cliche or boring.
I am not only here to read and to write, but I am here to help, get help, and practice. Other than wanting to be a published author, I want to teach English at a college level, and invent a new kind of course (One that combines reading for school, reading for fun, and creative writing) in the genres of horror, fantasy, science fiction, romance, and novel writing.
I would also like to add that I will read anything that I am asked to read. But I must warn everyone that I am a harsh critic, and honest. I will not back if I do not feel the book is worthy, nor will I back for a promise to be backed. I also do not expect to be backed by those I have put on my shelf. So if you are not feint hearted, leave me a message, and I will read your book!
P.S. Just got my foot in the door with a publishing company! At least for a job... Should start training soon to be a line editor! Wahoo!

Pretty much horror, fantasy, and sci fi. But I also enjoy young adult, and other genres when I stumble on something that is really well written with a good story.
