Andrea Graham did an exhaustive developmental edit of her husband’s novel, Tales of the Dim Knight. Her publisher, Splashdown Books, insisted on giving her a co-author’s by line for her free labor (note this service is not available to the public.) Andrea also edited her husband’s experiment in episodic short fiction, Laser & Sword Magazine, and proofed Frank Creed’s award winning Flashpoint.
Her short story “Frozen Generation” appeared in Light at the Edge of Darkness. She provides a regular devotional and book reviews from a Christian worldview at Ask Andrea. She studied creative writing and religion at Ashland University, has been studying the craft of fiction writing for over ten years, and editing her critique partners for eight. Visit her online at POVbootcamp.com and Ask Andrea, or follow her tweets @povbootcamp.
Andrea lives with her husband Adam and their cat Joybell in Boise, Idaho. She is a current member of her local chapter of American Christian Fiction Writers, a founding member of the Lost Genre Guild, and subscribes to the Christian PEN’s discussion group. You can read the story of how she and her editor in chief/coauthor met atAdam and Andrea’s homepage.

I’m a friend of Donna Crow. I belong to Word Weavers Christian Writers in Orlando FL. Those who critique me, say I have a problem with point of view. I don’t see it. I’m writing fiction about a boy. Do you have free information on pov? Or recommend a certain book? Thanks. Mrs. Ellen Freytag
Books–my favorite resource is Self-Editing for Fiction writers.
Links to my articles (free) on POV:
Just what is POV?
What are the ground rules?
What’s the most common POV problem?
How do you describe a POV Character?
Since you’re probably making the same mistakes over repeatedly, my critique of the first ten pages would offer specific feedback and suggestions. There’s a nominal fee of $5 or I trade it for copy editing my website.
Hope that helps,
Andrea Graham
Thanks!
