“My aim is to put down what I see and what I feel in the best and simplest way I can tell it.” - Ernest Hemingway
“Writing for me is just like building a chair, making an artifact. The idea is that you build, create a story and cobble it together. If it stands up, that's good. If it stands up, it's comfortable, it's a good story, a good chair.” - Scott Smith
“A great story is life, with the dull parts taken out.” - Alfred Hitchcock
“Easy reading is damn hard writing.” - Nathaniel Hawthorne
“Good writing is more about graft and craft than inspiration and aspiration.” - Johnny Rich
Professional Book Editor: Having your novel, short story or nonfiction manuscript proofread or edited before submitting it can prove invaluable. In an economic climate where you face heavy competition, your writing needs a second eye to give you the edge. Whether you come from a big city like Nashville, Tennessee, or a small town like Turkey Creek, Louisiana, I can provide that second eye.
