Thank You and a Call For Assistance

20 Mar

003Happy Thursday to you all.

I have a gift for you today….this is a very short message…or couple of messages.

First, to those of you who called me earlier this week as part of my challenge, thank you so much.  This was important to me.  Making meaningful connections with other writers is one of the reasons I have stayed at HubPages as long as I have. I love the community of writers I have met, and to talk to thirteen writers this week was a thrill for me. I hope some of you others take me up on the offer and call me.  It really is a thrill for me to know you better as human beings and not just some screen presence.

Next…..the working title for my novel is now “Resurrecting Tobias.”  This one works within the context of the story….so this might end up being the final.  It was that or “The Resurrection of Tobias King” but Bev and I liked the flow of the first option.  What do you think?

Lastly:  I’ll be needing readers to go over my manuscript starting next week.  This is my official call to you if you have the time.  Email me at holland1145@yahoo.com if you are interested.  The book is about 240 Word pages, or about 127,000 words.

Here’s the thing: I need it done within a week or so, so if you can’t do it I will understand.  I don’t want flowery reviews based on friendship. I want honest appraisals with suggestions regarding glow, character development, scene development, dialogue, etc.

So let me know, and in advance, thanks to you all.

That’s it for this week. I’ll be back next Tuesday with some more Artistry With Words.
