I know there are at least a number of writers and aspiring authors who read this site, and probably there are at least some people who have partners who are writers who read this site.
If any of you are in need of an excellent Christmas present for writers, or for yourself, or are looking for critiques, feedback, or mentoring, have I got a deal for you.
Award-winning fantasy author Judith Tarr is offering mentoring services for twenty-five dollars an hour. I thought a four-hour package could be a really *awesome* present for somebody, so I thought I’d mention it here.
If you don’t know Judy’s work, you … jeez. You should, is all I can say. *laugh* I really only discovered her work recently, although I’ve known of her for probably fifteen years, and once I started reading her stuff I started demanding why people hadn’t told me to read her *years* ago. She’s simply an astounding writer.
Judy is dancinghorse on LJ, or can be emailed at cait-brennan@sff.net (which I post publically only because it’s posted on her website), or if you’d rather I gave you some kind of introduction, drop me an email at catie at cemurphy dot net and I’d be pleased to do so.
Honestly, this is a golden opportunity for writers looking for professional feedback on their manuscripts. Make your writer happy today! :)
Oooo. That sounds excellent. And I’ve got some stuff lying around, but, well… I think I’m just not ready to do that kinda thing yet. Maybe in a couple of years. :)
And I do agree with you – Judith aka Caitlin is brilliant! Although I’ve only read her Luna books so far. Hm, I think a visit to Amazon is in order… ;)
Anyway. Enough rambling. Good luck with the move!
Long-time lurker here. Just had to chime in and say that her Avaryan books are outstanding, and I highly recommend them.
Ooh! Lurkers! How exciting! :)
I haven’t read the Avaryan books yet. I’ve got this increasingly large pile of Judy’s books which I have no time to read. :)
