Writing Haven discussion

This was kjust an idea I had. It would be a group of people who are 'super' writers, aka meaning writing is mostly their life. They could help people if they have questions, need reassurance about their writing, grammar questions, etc. Kind of like a guardian angel only a writing angel!

Hi, I'm Lynn Hardy.

I've got two books out now and a videogame that will be based on Book One that should be released in the Fall.

I don't have a college degree, but I've been told by professionals in the field that I am a "natural." I do things because the sound right not because I know the rule for it.

I had my first book edited by a Wizards of the Coast editor who has a bestseller to her credit. Andrea Howe found mostly spelling (homonyms) errors and punctuations problems along with a tendency to over capitalize.

I can help with grammar, pacing and flow.

The I'd be happy to give an in-depth critique of one chapter (not more than 20 pages.) Please let me know if you are under 17 or if this will be one of your first reviews.

I write YA Fantasy and SF with a dash of romance and an urban twist. I feel I can help best with Fantasy, SF and Romance (Just remembered that I've read a ton of Steven King and Koontz so add horror to the list) but will gladly help with what you have. My poetry skills are immature and not my strong suit: ask Kayla!

Obviously writing is not my whole life, but I enjoy it so much more than anything else.
I can give some pretty good input on Poetry. I also do lots of fantasy. science fiction/romance stories and novels. I can point out everything on grammar, spelling and sensible mistakes, but ask Lynn about the plot and pacing skills. :)

Okay, as for me I've been writing ever since I learned how to do it back in 1st grade! I write everday and I'm currently writing two novels! I'm studying to be an editor for a book publishing company and so I'm good with grammer, description (have a ton of techniques so if you have a problem in that area ask me) and also coming up with ideas! I'm here if anyone needs help!

I, myself, will help since it's basically all i do in my own time. Well, that and reading. Like both Lynn and Kayla, I deal mostly with Fantasy and science fiction but i can spread my horizon with romance, mysteries and horror. I'm very good with spelling, grammar sometimes gets me if i get confused on what sounds right.

Okay, I'm currently in the process of writing two novels, both centred in fantasy and young adult fiction. I've been told my strong suit is grammar and spelling so I'd be happy to help with those, and if you have any questions on possible ideas for your story I'd be glad to give an opinion. I'm looking for people to read my stories and welcome editing partners.

How and where do people post questions for the Angels? Can they post a chapter here for us to comment on?

Just a couple of questions to get us started.

Most people post their stories in the posting area so if you ask the person, and they say yes, just go to the link they gave you and comment.
