Looking for for my novel set in '90s startup world. The novel is allegedly funny (intentionally): if Bridget Jones was a nice Jewish girl who just wanted a promotion. . Anyone? Thanks for considering.

Probably my most common edit is, "Go deeper." So much of characterization can be left off the page and stay stuck in the author's head. If it's not on the page, we won't get it. Take your characters deeper and show us who they really are, and why they do what they do.

One of the most common questions I'm asked is "Why do I have to follow [insert writing rule] when [insert popular book] doesn't follow that rule?" The answer is complicated so get ready for a long thread.

I've been a professional copyeditor for over fifteen years. Last night my father said my job involved "just reading." I don't think he'll ever understand what I do for a living.
