I posted this on Facebook about 4 years ago & since I posted about spelling on Friday & yesterday was Mother’s Day, it seems right to repost... Women & punctuation.

Happy Friday!!! (Always remember, spelling matters! You should use an editor...)

It seems a lot of people don’t know what an Editorial Assessment is (but love the idea of a $175 read).

Anyway, I’m gonna break it down for you very simply: I read THE ENTIRE BOOK & give you some notes (not as detailed as Track Changes *in* the text) & pretty much end by my overall opinion.

This read is often used before querying (if you publish traditionally)-it’s what an agent might do when they first read (so doing edits *before* helps you avoid problems & possible rejection). It’s a very good read *before* you self publish too, as you can catch any mistakes (even plot holes or character inconsistencies) & have a more professional/professional-sounding book. (In fact, I urge you to do this-even if it’s not with me... but I’m better😉hahahaha!)

Now that you know, hit me up! I’m waiting...

As we head into week 8 (or is it week 9 or week 50 now?) of shelter-at-home, I wonder if this is our "new normal." I mean, nothing is normal BUT that's because I'm comparing it to life before ... Back when I did editorial assessments for $700--but now, who can afford $700? Maybe this new offer of 75% off--$175--is going to be the new normal? Right now, it expires in a month ... (though, like stay-at-home orders, I'm sure I'll extend it!)

Anyway, a read from a pro is good (something I always advise) but a discounted read from a pro???--GREAT! Now, I know your brother-in-law, Bob, volunteered to read/edit for free (& free is better than great, right?!?) & Bob graduated from Harvard with a BA in English (wow!) HOWEVER, Bob went to Harvard in '74 (before I was born & the rules of the game have changed) so might I suggest you start investing in yourself? I thought long & hard about this (seriously, 75% off is no joke! I am a NYT Best Selling agent-turned-editor! I have won awards for my books! I have yeeeears of experience!--meaning, I know things), & I decided I only want to help. So, please, help me help you! Have me do your read before you try querying or before you self pub.

(Also, if I work with you, you can consider me a friend & advocate in this industry--which is helpful because this business is tough!)

HAPPY FRIDAY!

This #writingprompt reminds me of #stephenking #misery ... I can see a new/rising star (or just someone getting their 15 min of fame) & finding their own crazed fan... I would totally read that (for a discount)! Contact me...

"Girls like us pick up the hot handles And burn our hands and we get over it" - The Julie Ruin, Girls Like Us

Hi, friends, for those asking/those that are curious: I am doing much better. I told you I was up & down! I wouldn't say I'm at Walking-on-Sunshine-Katrina-&-the-Waves level 10, but my mood is most definitely I-Promise-Not-to be-an-Asshole-by-Arcwelder (that's a real song by a real band, by the way--I played it at my wedding--do check it out).

MOOD BOOSTER #1) I got to video chat with girls from high school--you know, a good ol' fashioned gab fest (it didn't matter that my hair was 3 colors, that my nails were all broken, that I had gotten fatter--I needed this!) MOOD BOOSTER #2) I talked to my mom--she always grounds me MOOD BOOSTER #3) My husband is helping me--A LOT--from cooking to letting me pick out the movies we watch--which means dumb horror (gawd bless you, Sy Fy & can I say, gawd bless me?!?--I have been kinder & more patient, more understanding, etc) MOOD BOOSTER #4) Fiona Apple's FETCH THE BOLT CUTTERS couldn't have come at a better time (seriously, this album has been playing nonstop) & MOOD BOOSTER #5) I got a job--I'm reading again! Keeping busy!--focusing on more than just the news! My mind stopped turning to mush! Plus, I need the money--seriously!

I don't mean to rub this in anyone's face--so don't take it that way--I'm just happy ... (Don't worry--Oregon has no date set to open up so I'm sure I'll be back down soon enough!) Since I am feeling up, I'm reminded of that Lady Gaga & Florence Welch song & those lyrics, "Hey girl/If you lose your way/Just know that I got you" & I mean it--I have the energy now; I got you.

Thank you all for having my back, for responding & supporting. I <3 you all. I wish we could hug (but since we can't, know I'm doing a princess/pageant wave &, possibly, blowing you a kiss).
