about me
I have been writing for the Internet for over a decade, and currently work as a freelance writer of non-fiction articles, providing content for several clients.
My first novel, Moroaica and second novel Decontamination, are both now available in print and Kindle editions, and from Smashwords is multiple eBook formats, so I don't currently have anything on Authonomy for review.
My first full length novel, Moroaica, is intended as the first of a four part series chronicling the vampire wars. Eldar Moroi, the second of the Moroi Chronicles, may be partialy uploaded here at a later date.
Decontamination, is completely different, more of a science/ ecothriller told in third person past tense, whereas Moroaica is first person present tense.
Although I won't back a book unless I think it's worth it, I will add something that's not quite there to my watchlist for reevaluation later when edits have been made.
I'm more interested in swapping constructive criticism and developing mutual working relationships with a few writers whose styles may or may not be similar to mine, than in having lots of faint praise and no help.
Similarly, I'm more likely to leave comment where I think I have something useful to say than where I can't find any flaws, but I'm not (I hope) overly critical or harsh.
If the book is already in a publishable state (in my opinion) or has so many problems the criticism would be too harsh, I'm more likely to simply rate it and move on, or send a message to the author rather than leave an open comment on the book. After all, I'm not a professional editor, and I wouldn't want to put other potential readers off.
