I’ve written two novels to date. My first, Pandora’s Succession is an action/thriller espionage novel that’s being prepped for publication. My second is complete but in its draft phase.

I love both reading and studying movies for their characters, especially the villains, which I believe can make or break a great story. Don’t ask me where I get my ideas from, they pop up in some of the weirdest places.

My goal is to develop Pandora’s Succession, my novel, into a series. My dream is to write a screenplay one day for either Superman or X-Files movies, but I’ll just settle for getting my first book published for the time being.

Chapter 1 Somewhere near Groznyy, Chechnya, The blow to the side of his head dropped Ridley Fox to the floor. The cold surface against the side of his face, the jarring pain, and the spinning were the last things he remembered before he blacked out. When he awoke, the throbbing pain remained as he was dragged by his legs across the floor, the concrete scraping the back of his scalp. He opened his eyes, only to stare into the barrel of a Russian AK-108 assault rifle that was less than a foot a...

Poetry / Drink Up
by FlannelDreams
quite whispers. I think you mean quiet whispers. However, if the person's whispering, mentioning that it's quiet is redundant. action's speak louder than word's. Cut out the apostrophes. This is a cliché sentence. Try something else. Throughout you have apostrophes in the wrong places.

Poetry / What are you?
by natalie272
This is one of the better poems that I've read recently. It was very difficult to find anything wrong with it. Then I reread it and realized that the first sentence is written the wrong way. "Now I know how you must feel." Yet you ask a whole bunch of questions afterwards to the person running on the treadmill. May I suggest you write the first sentence in the form of a question so that it is less contradictory to the rest of the poem which is beautifully written. How do you really feel? Are ...
Sci Fi & Fantasy / Into Hell and Beyond (working title)
by DC_Karma
One of the more interesting novel treatments I've read. I'm guessing that this story is taken from Sarah's point of view, right? In that case may I suggest you open with Sarah sneaking up on Tiffany Plair as she watches her from behind the tree. Try not to switch POVs so quickly. "Tiffany pondered the idea, then lifted her head and her eyebrows, “Ah! I know…" I would've written: Sarah watched Tiffany raise an eyebrow, as though she pondered the idea. Punctuation "“It’s okay,” Tiffany gave a r...
