Equinoctial Sale
Sep. 13th, 2012 02:32 pm![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
It's been a while since I had a Sale, and there are openings and free dates (and a hay bill and a shoer bill and a herd of kamikaze horses), so here we are. Please feel free to boost the signal far and wide. Sale begins now and continues through September 22nd. Query here or send email to capriole at that gmail thing. And yes, I take Paypal.
Mentoring and Writing Teaching, Editing, and Various and Sundry Services
I have a number of openings for freelance editing, which includes everything from proofreading to copyediting to full-on line editing, and also for writer clients. I'm a full-service mentor, from brainstorming a new project to developing outline and synopsis to critting your ms. to working with you on your submission package. I'm particularly experienced in working with individual style and process, and plotting and brainstorming, including worldbuilding, is a specialty. I can also help you with the equestrian parts of your novel or story.
I have had to raise my rates to $50/hour, but for the duration of the sale, I'm offering a package of five hours for $200 (that's one hour free). This is enough time for review and discussion of a standard submission package (query, synopsis, chapters), a nice amount of worldbuilding and plotting, a chunk of proofing, editing, or critting--the options are numerous and very flexible. I will bank hours if you would like to start later on--say, after NaNo.
Offer open, as always, to current as well as new mentees.
Camp Lipizzan
This is the famous Horse Camp for Writers, located in southern Arizona--just outside of Tucson (25 minutes from Tucson Airport). I do one a month, and Campers often book the next one while they're at the current Camp. Limited to two Campers per session--three if they're good friends and one doesn't mind sharing a room. House has cats, but guest rooms are cat-free. Cost includes room with double bed and shared bath in farmhouse accommodations, library with comfy chairs and Supervisory Writers' Cat(tm), meals tailored to individual needs and diets, free wi-fi, and of course hot and cold running Lipizzans. Riding lessons and yoga classes additional--we work with Desert Horse Equestrian Services (riding, equine sports massage, bodywork and energy work) and Desert Horse Yoga. We highly recommend the White Horse Herd Yoga, and if you don't ride but want to learn how horses move and communicate and think, we have an option for that.
Rates begin at $375 per person for two nights/three days. First additional night $75, and $50/night thereafter. For the Sale, I'm offering a free night. Book four nights/five days at $500 per person and get a fifth night free. That's almost a full week in the desert, with horses, being fed and pampered, and writing like a writing thing. If you want a workshop, we'll include that. Also included: transport to and from Tucson Airport or, if you fly into Phoenix, from the Arizona Shuttle depot in eastside Tucson.
Dates are available between October 1st and November 15th, and between January 15th and April 1st. First comer gets to pick the date; if you're willing, we can add another Camper at that date. If you book October, I'll give you an even better deal: $475 per person for 4 or 5 nights.
To book, or if you have questions, comment here or email me at capriole at that gmail thing.
Thankyouall!
