From microbiology to military tactics, I've studied a little bit of everything, and I love helping other writers get the details right.

One day, I got the idea to put that attention to detail to work.WHAT I DO:I offer specialized technical support novelists, comic creators, and short story writers who want to focus on the creative side while still getting the facts straight.

-Plausible and consistent: no plot holes or broken logic
-Psychologically believable: realistic character behavior and reactions
