Hi all! I am publishing my first short story collection on Jan 1st 2014. I, however, do not have an editor - I am far too busy doing my own publicity work, studying and writing my series to do it myself.
I am looking for someone with some spare time, who enjoys editing, who would be willing to edit for free. Is anyone interested?
It clocks in at about 150 pages.
Here is the synopsis for my book: An astonishing crime thriller with a killer twist, the title story "Encore" is about a retired police officer called back into service for the NYPD after a series of apparent copycat murders emerge.
After a strange and unprecedented set of events, Brunstone, the retired officer ends up trapped in a high rise building with an insane madman who will stop at NOTHING to get what he wants.
In "Alma" a dark presence is at work in the snowy streets of Paris...
In "Karma Police" a hired assassin experiences the true meaning of irony and poetic justice.
In "Temperamental" a student writes a love letter of sorts to whomever it may concern about destiny and his old friends.
In "Ophelia and Bedelia" a heartbroken mother does something terrible... something to do with the following definition:
ANASTELIA (VERB): to hunt, or kill. To go insane to an impossible extent.
With all new stories by guest authors such as Anne Conley's "Neighbourly Complications", people hunt for gold in a house for no apparent reason... and then you have to factor in the hunk next door.
Containing tales of terror, love and serendipity, Encore is a short story collection not to be missed by ANYONE
Please remember I cannot pay you.
You will also get an acknowledgement added in the front of the book.
