Looking For Readers, Reviewers and Editors

As you readers must now by now (because I’m bitching about it all the time) – I write books. Most of all I try to write entertaining books and although I’ve been flirting around with different genres – they’re all contemporary. I don’t see myself writing a World War II novel any time soon. I probably won’t write a crime novel either, but who knows?

But I will write. That you can bet on.

The thing is, I need help. I do know how to put together a sentence or two – after all I’ve been working as a journalist and a copywriter for many years, but I need a extra eyes. Eyes that spot sentence problems, structural issues, character inconsistencies – really anything that might make a reader say: “No, not for me.” (or worse!).

I’m not a rich man so I need people who love to read and are willing to do this out of the passion of reading. What I can offer is the opportunity to read my books before they hit the stores and to have a sometimes big impact on the content in them. I will also give due credit for any help I might receive.

Simply put, I need feedback on my writing that doesn’t cost professional editor fees. The idea is to build a team of readers that can help me make my books better. This doesn’t require massive amounts of work – the job description is pretty much:

1. Read my book.

2. Write down what you think and e-mail me.

What I hope is for constructive criticism and general proofreading to help my writing and my books get better.
