Chronicles of a Writer: Professional Editors Part 2/2

By Leave a Comment

*To view part one, go here*

Editors are unique, and fascinating creatures. When they are not scouring manuscripts for their sustenance of choice – improper use of homophones – they spend long hours partaking in elaborate grooming rituals, that appear to mostly involve excessive amounts of coffee and self-loathing.

Vivid scenery and quirky characters populate The Melody of Three

"Each character has something driving them, some fierce motivation behind their actions, but the full importance of their goals isn’t quite revealed until the end, and sometimes not even then. Each character has flaws, personality quirks, and all the little details that make them full-fledged people and not just tropes or puppets – it’s easy to get interested and invested in what happens to them."

"Reeves writes with both the mechanical acuity of Shakespeare and the warm, wry wit of Terry Pratchett...This is an exquisitely written start to a new fantasy series that demonstrates the dangers of an irresistible distraction."Red City Review
