FICTION
I began my writing journey in composing fiction stories, beginning with outlining plots and developing characters and then plugging away for hours as the story poured from my fingers. I know the joy of leaning in to this creative spark and seeing what grows out of it! Get your story out first; worry about the details later. I can be your extra pair of eyes to help refine the less inspiring details as you prepare your work for publication. I provide everything from checking for grammar and usage to assisting in more complicated aspects of style, such as helping you revise dialogue, offering suggestions about scenes that need further development, and bringing forth the classic advice to "show, don't tell!"
MASTERKEY
B.G. HARVEY
January 15, 2023
For the crime lords of Cleveland Hub, Artificial Intelligence is the most powerful and dangerous weapon in existence, one they'll pay for in blood and Nanos. Smuggling an AI is the most lucrative of all runs, and Eli is amongst the most trusted of runners. When everything goes wrong on the delivery, the Masterkey AI he's carrying becomes intertwined with his neural network. Thus begins a desperate race to either find a way to extract it or to find a replacement. Should he fail, the buyers will hunt Eli and his friends down. And in this world, there are some fates worse than death.

Whether you're navigating the often confusing rules of citation styles or wondering whether to place a comma or a semi-colon, it can help to have an extra eye when preparing to submit the defining work of your university experience.
