Manuscript evaluations with Gail Anderson-Dargatz
Gail Anderson-Dargatz is now booking manuscript evaluations for early spring 2010 onwards.
The manuscript evaluations Gail provides amount to mentorships. They are of particular use to novelists who have a rough draft completed and wish to improve both the manuscript and their writing in general. Gail uses the evaluation as a teaching tool, pointing out common problem areas that we all seem to stumble over as we learn this very complicated craft. Gail then helps guide the writer towards solutions to those problems in his or her own writing.
