I have been editing fiction for 10+ years, editing about 60 manuscripts, half of which have been published. Of those, 4 or 5 have won gold medals for best fiction in their genre. Advice, whatever you do, do not rush the process. I believe the slow turtle wins the race when it comes to writing and publishing your hard work. Feel free to check me out on LinkedIn. If I can help you, give me a holler.

I also co-authored a book written by my pal, Julius Thompson, entitled JUMPSTARTING YOUR INNER NOVELIST. Julius and I provide something that I believe is rare. If you email or call us, we will try our best to help you jump your writing hurdle.

Julius Thompson and I have written a fantastic manual to help new writers and seasoned writers as well. Every creative individual has, at one time or other, hit their creative rock bottom. This manual may be able to help you hit your high note.

I have known Julius for ten plus years and I have edited all of his books. It only made sense for Julius to ask me to co-author Jumpstarting. I have contributed two articles, the importance of good grammar and a few editing do's and don'ts.

This manual is so much more than just a motivational tool. This guide will provide you with a set of tools to help you address issues such as developing captivating scenes, creating vivid, descriptive, specific details, living in the setting, editing, grammar and other crucial elements to help you write a potentially successful novel.

I truly believe that we offer the reader/writer something that few may have taken the time to offer. Purchase your copy today. Feel free to contact us at any time with comments or suggestions. We are here for you!

“I had been looking for an editor for ten long years until I was lucky enough to find Dennis De Rose. He has edited all of my books, making them come alive. He has played a big part in helping me achieve the recognition I have as an award-winning author. I am looking forward to working with my friend, Dennis, on my Stormy Winds project.”
