Exploring the whys and hows of critiquing creative writing — applying the writer’s tools in a different way

BTL Critique client hits the big time!

Posted by Laurin Wittig on September 4, 2009

I’m sending out a huge HUZZAH! to my dear friend, and Between the Lines Critiques client, Pamela Palmer. 

Her third Feral Warriors book, Passion Untamed, has hit the Top 10 on the Borders romance best sellers list.  If you love dark paranormal romance, I highly recommend you check out Pam’s awsome new series.

Shameless Self-Promotion

Posted by Laurin Wittig on October 30, 2008

Life has a way of getting busy, even when I think I’ve got whole days to devote to my personal projects.  Seems like there is always some vitally important thing that must be attended to asap and the things that are at the top of my personal Want-to-Do list get shuffled off the Today list and onto the Next Week list.   However, I have persevered amidst the chaos of life this week and have posted information about my critique service on the Between the Lines Critiques page.  Let me know if I can be of help!
