If you are looking for a published author to critique your short story, novella, or full length manuscript, I would love to help you!

I am a member of a brutally honest critique group. 
Know what that means? 
It means I have learned the art of giving honest opinions freely and openly. 
I believe it’s important to tell a fellow writer the complete truth—tactfully—about their writing, because sugar-coating an opinion does not do the writer. . .or the story. . .any good.  The result of my critique group’s brutal honesty policy has been multiple BESTSELLING novels for two of us at Whiskey Creek Press, including two books that hit #1!  

If we decide to work together, you will email me your complete manuscript.  Since perfecting the content is our main goal, I will read the book on the computer, using 'track changes' to ask questions, and give opinions and pointers, as well as make minor grammar and punctuation corrections.  When I’m finished, I will email the manuscript back to you.  In addition, a separate list of notes, suggestions and comments about your story will be included. 

**$2.00 per page
-Payment accepted by PayPal, cashier's check, or money order.  If you would like to pay by personal check, critiquing will begin once the bank has cleared your check.

**All communication will be by email.  I can be reached at LaurenSharman@gmail.com 

**Please send your manuscript as an attachment.

**Font should be Times New Roman 12 pt. only

FICTION ONLY.  No science fiction, please.

Please contact me before sending your manuscript.

For an additional charge, I will hold your hand and walk you down the path of writing the dreaded, one-page synopsis that agents love to see.  We will work together writing, tweaking, and perfecting until it’s just right!
