An Expert Resource for Writing Research Needs

Ranked #20,218 in Culture & Society, #412,818 overall

When you're writing a fiction or non-fiction book, it's helpful to have an expert that you can call upon to make sure certain details of your book are accurate, realistic, and believeable.

There are several areas in life in which I am an expert, and I've outlined some of them here.  If you are writing a book for NaNoWriMo, you'll notice that several of these areas are listed on the forums under expert topic headings.  

If you are interested in learning more about how my expert advice can enhance the quality of your book, email me by clicking on the "contact the lensmaster" link to the right.  During the months of October and November (as much as I have time for) advice to NaNoWriMo participants is free!  (Please contact me through the forum.)

Other authors can "rent" me based on their needs and financial and bartering abilities.  Find out how we can create a win-win situation by emailing me today!
