Description

The life of a superhero is tough. All American Girl fights supervillains, alien invaders, and terrorists as she tries to get product endorsements and a magazine deal. That's nothing compared to her private life though. She's only just broken up with her super boyfriend Perihelion when he's scooped up by Omega Woman, and now rival Skygirl has moved into her territory.

Review by: Francis Porretto on March 14, 2012 :
Oh, you fiend. You demon from the depths of hell. You enemy of all that's right and good...

Have you any IDEA how hard it was for me to keep from laughing my insides out over this??

All right, I suppose I'll keep my job. But the younger folks around here are NEVER going to let me live down my giggling!

Now, please allow an old, much-traveled writer to school you just a wee bit. Consider it revenge.

Lesson One: There are a few technical problems, mainly involving spelling and punctuation, that a good editor should have found, which implies that you didn't have one. So have one! Your stuff deserves it.

Lesson Two: Repetition is the enemy of entertainment. You should be watchful about syntactic patterns, because they tend to jerk the reader out of the story. An example:

[Participial phrase implying simultaneity], [the subject of the sentence] [did something else].

This is a common pattern among younger writers. I suggest you try to avoid it, especially since the simultaneity it implies is often impossible.

Lesson Three: The hardest errors to detect are the ones that don't look like errors (surprise, surprise). The most common case of this is using the wrong homophone. For example, at one point you used "feat" where "feet" is the right word. In another place, you refer to the alien attack force commander as the "Field Marshall;" however, "Marshall" is a man's name. You wanted "Marshal" there. Automated spellcheckers obviously won't help with that sort of fault. Even some really sharp editors would sail past it.

But otherwise, wonderfully well done!

Don't be put off by the “strange” cover. This book is funny without end.
