Do you know the number one most overused word I see as a freelance editor?

Look!

Some writers use it on every page. Multiple times.

My free resource, The Looks & Gazes Quickstart Guide, will help you to “look”👀 into this problem.

It includes some sample pages from my Energize Your Writing Toolkit to help you start invigorating your characters' nonverbal communication. Discover 100+ ways to describe your characters' looks and gazes for free.

Hi everyone,

I just wanted to share about an upcoming course that writers might find of interest.

I am a freelance developmental editor and creator of the affordable online course Book Editing Blueprint: A Step-by-Step Plan to Making Your Novels Publishable. (coming fall 2019.)

By going through this online writing class on how to edit a book, you’ll get the tools to skyrocket your manuscript to the next level without breaking the bank.

This course demystifies the editing process, giving you a practical, step-by-step blueprint for evaluating, rewriting, and polishing your manuscript. It’s a proven system that outlines what every fiction author should do before approaching an editor. That way when you’re ready to hire a professional book editor, you’ll get much more value for your money and should receive a high level edit rather than one filled with general beginner advice.

I also offer content editing and line editing for one price. You can select the hard copy option or the Word file option.

If you would like to learn more about me, visit my website and sign up for the free class Line Editing Made Simple - 5 Days to More Polished Pages. You can also join my private Shortcuts for Writers Facebook group where you can download the free toolkit 7 Simple Steps to Nailing Your Book Blurb.
