Dr. Johnson had his Boswell. Jane Austen had her sister Cassandra. Fitzgerald, Hemingway and Thomas Wolfe had their Maxwell Perkins.
I’ll bet even J.D. Salinger bounced his ideas off someone. If only his dog.
The point being, every writer, at least now and again, needs someone with whom he can shoot the literary breeze, chew the fictional fat, and track down the elusive Muse of inspiration.
So…
Are you having trouble turning your rough idea into a finished manuscript?
Are you experiencing a plot problem? A character crisis? Thematic thrombosis?
Are you interested in independent publishing but don’t have a clue as to how to get started?
Is the asparagus bed of social networks and Internet marketing making your teeth itch?
Well then, you are not without resources. I am at your service.
And in coming to your aid I bring:
- 20-years’ experience as a teacher, most of it spent in higher education (I hold a PhD in philosophy)
- a scholar’s insight into the structure of narrative
- real practical experience as a writer with three independently published novels to my credit
- real practical experience in Internet book marketing, including the development of two websites related to my work
The Muse and I are standing by to help you develop your craft!
Please know that I am also available as a public speaker on a wide range of topics related to the craft of writing, publishing, and the arts and popular culture.
