READING BETWEEN THE LINES is a service for writers who want to improve their work or receive feedback from an independent, experienced writer. Writing can be a lonely pursuit and it can be difficult to get constructive comments from friends and family. This why I recommend joining a writers circle.

In conjunction with a writers circle a one to one appraisal is valuable because the whole of your manuscript can be assessed in a much shorter time and the comments are tailored to your work.

Although I have a full time job I am the secretary of a successful Surrey based writers' circle and was once the chairperson. One of my aims as chairperson was to get the short stories and poetry of the members into a professionally produced anthology. The first (pictured above left) won a national anthology prize; the second was runner up. My two novels have received acclaim from those who bought them. There are links to these items and other web sites that may be of interest.
