New Projects and Such

Hello All!

I know it's been a little bit since I posted, and I beg your forgiveness!

Things here have been... strange. Things just seem to be getting in the way of, well, everything. Some of the things, I swear if I wrote a book explaining it all, you'd scoff if you found it on a non-fiction shelf and think it had mislabeled!

But anyways...

So, I just finished the "Fifty Shades" trilogy and I have to say I am in love. It was fantastic. I miss Ana and Christian and I wish she would write a fourth book! I went into it knowing it started out as "Twiglight" fanfic, and I have to say, I think it helped me with perspective as far as the plot and characters are concerned.

Side note: I totally hope they cast Jensen Ackles from "Supernatural" as Christian Grey (a pic my sister sent me with a quote is my phone's background image, I kid you not!

But alas, the real world has also been knocking on my door, well, pounding really. I let things go which required much attention and to my dismay, I do not know where the summer has gone. I feel quite bereft, I must say.

So, I am working on hard on finding new clients in need of editing services, I am letting the first draft of "Eternal Chance" stew, and am in the middle of a new project, "The Devil Knows".

With that being said, if you are in need of a detailed eye to make sure that your manuscript is up to par, please email me at jj.felton@live.com or visit jj-felton.com! Fantastic editing rates and payment plans are available.

My new project, "The Devil Knows" is one that comes from the heart. After learning about a dear family friend who has been diagnosed with terminal cancer, I focused all of my feelings into this single project. I've streamlined it into a readable story in a genre I am most comfortable in writing, and therefore contains a paranormal twist, but I hope the focus remains on the goal at hand.

#TDK follows Megan in her quest to find a way to cure her best friend Anya from cancer. She searches for conventional methods and after hitting a brick wall turns to an unconventional taboo method in order to give Anya the life she deserves.

What will Anya do if she discovers her best friend's sacrifice? How will Megan live with herself if she can't save Anya? How will anyone survive and face each other, or theirselves?

This story is a gut-wrenching tale of hope, despair, and above all else - love.

Check out my site jj-felton.com/creation.nook to keep up with my novel, Eternal Chance! Currently the Prologue is up for reading and reviewing! Monday Chapter One will see the first light of day.

Please keep in mind this is the rough draft which is being posted. I'm constantly making revisions, but I have to keep some material new and fresh for when it comes out! I will be making each chapter Prologue through Chapter Six available online!

Your comments and feedback could end up being the idea(s) that help shape my future revisions!

Check it out!

Editing

So, I have offered my services to a fellow author on one of the community groups I am in. He isn't able to afford an editor, and so I have offered to edit it for free.

I am a grammar nazi, only nicer than those which Hitler had employed. When I read something, even published books, I find parts where I go, but maybe this would be better.

With that said, along with trying to get my first e-zine off the ground, run my social network and write my book, I decided to pull myself into another direction: Editing.

If anyone is interested in getting a piece edited, please email sub.creativespark@live.com with the type of piece, length of piece, budget, and first three pages for a free sample edit.

You will receive a response within 24 hours.

Thank you,

JJ Felton
