All of the people offered me their assistance. I asked one of the script consultants to read one of my short films. Voila! My short film was critiqued <b>three times</b> in exchange for another interview. The information provided to me is invaluable and more helpful than any book I read. Travel writers can do the same with editors. Interview an editor in exchange for a review of your article or manuscript. <b>Note</b>: he or she may not review your entire manuscript, just the first 10-50 pages. It's better than nothing!
