A RESOURCE FOR WRITERS WHOSE CHARACTERS REQUIRE MEDICAL ASSISTANCE
Have your characters been shot, stabbed or poisoned? Do they need theatre or ICU? Have they just been diagnosed with a malignancy?
Is your story about a doctor, nurse or medical student. Perhaps a patient in a hospital?
I can help you make your story as authentic as possible without letting the facts totally destroy your creative ideas.
Sometimes it may be just a simple question, for example, if a person was knocked out in a fight, would they remember who hit them afterwards or WOULD THEY HAVE A PERIOD OF AMNESIA SURROUNDING THE EVENT?
Or you might have a whole scene that needs critiquing. I can do this and also and add the little details which breathe realism and life into your novel or screenplay.
Because I am an author as well as an emergency medicine physician, I am uniquely placed to help you. I will not just give you facts. I will give you suggestions, and sometimes even add dialogue and other subtext to make your scenes with medical/surgical events sizzle with realism, emotion and suspense.*
I normally charge $10.00 per page. This is far less than the cost of a real medical consult.
At present, I could possibly organize a discount. However this will be on a case by case basis, depending upon the amount of work your project involves for me.
By the way did I mention I can do your covers?
I always reply promptly to my emails, so if you don't hear back from me it means my junk mail filter has swallowed you up.
