After more than twenty years in the publishing industry I am endeavoring to assist the new or unpublished writer gain experience and publication by offering a ‘free’ reading service.

This free reading service is limited to the first twenty pages only of a new manuscript. A few comments will be pencilled on the pages and returned together with a report which gives advice (if needed) to assist the writer to hone the manuscript to final polished copy for submission to either a publisher or literary agent. 

A covering letter, a two page synopsis or outline, plus a Title page giving the author’s contact details and word count of the completed manuscript should accompany the first twenty pages of the new manuscript.

A SSAE (stamped self addressed envelope) of the correct size and postage must be included otherwise the manuscript cannot be returned.
