Randy Surles - Military Fiction Editor
Mentoring Authors One Scene at a Time
Write Your Best Story
My book probably wouldn’t have seen the light of day without Randy’s help, guidance and formidable background in developmental editing. Randy helped me learn to write the right way, and turn what was a mess of a story into something to be proud of. I would gladly put my faith in his editing skills for all my future books.
