FAQ
Do you Edit poems in other languages?
Sorry, but I only know English. Although, I can work on poems that have been translated to English from another language.
How In-depth is your critique?
I offer 1/4 page critiques for the basic package and 1/2 page critique for the premium package.
Do you offer line editing or substantive editing?
I offer a little bit of both. I will comb carefully through your poem. I will add, take away, replace, and edit words/lines. I will use my 7 years of experience to be careful to keep your original voice intact, while still making enough change to make a difference.

I appreciate Ada m's poetry, and now I appreciate his integrity as well. He could have given me small edits and kept the fee, but, insyead, he told me my poetry was good, he could not make it better, and he refunded my fee. Praise like that coming from a fellow poet would have been w I rth the fee. I will definitely use him again if I have need.
