The Two Sheds Review: UCMMA 29

Published On 08/24/2012 | By Julian Radbourne | Columns

It’s time to head into the world of British mixed martial arts once again as we take a look at the latest offering from Ultimate Challenge MMA, shown this past Wednesday on Sky Sports here in Britain.

The show bean with light heavyweight action as Max Nunes went up against Iain Martell.

Nunes began his night’s work with a head kick straight off the bat, but it wasn’t long before Martell came back, taking the fight to the ground. Nunes managed to back to his feet, only for Martell to take him straight back down again.

Martell’s work eventually saw him taking Nunes’ back, however, Nunes managed to shake him off and reverse the positions, going for a few moments of ground and pound before the round came to an end.

The second round had an almost identical beginning. Nunes scored with the head hick and Martell came back with a takedown, this time barging his opponent from one side of the cage to the other.

Martell had no time to go on the offence though. Nunes quickly locked in a triangle choke, and it wasn’t long before Martell tapped out to give Nunes the submission win with the round just 46 seconds old.

Lightweight action followed as Sean Carter faced Dom Clark.

The best way to describe this one would be all-out brawl. Both men began unloading with the heavy leather early on. There were a couple of brief clinches against the cage as well as a brief guillotine attempt by Carter, but in the main this was a slugfest.

Each man bloodied the other, and both were in trouble at various points until a couple of knees followed by a couple of punches saw Clark slump to the ground. Carter followed him down for a few seconds until the referee stepped in to give Carter the TKO win.

After a highlights package from some of the other fights it was back to regular action as Tautvydas Lileikis faced Ben Callum in the semi-finals of the middleweight tournament.

This one didn’t last long. Callum began swinging for the fences early on, and it wasn’t long before he had Lileikis on the ground. Callum followed him down and rained down a torrent of blows, but just when it looked like it was all over Lileikis managed to get back to his feet.

He was back down on the ground within seconds though, and as Callum went in for the kill the referee stepped in after just 33 seconds to give Callum the knockout win.

UK1 kickboxing action followed as Jefferson George faced Michael Page for the Welterweight Superfight title.

I have to admit I didn’t quite know what to make of this one. Both fights, particularly Page, spent a great deal of time trying to execute fancy kicks. At one point it looked like they were trying to re-enact the famous fight scene from Way of the Dragon.

The strikes that landed were few and far between, and when Page did unload with the heavy stuff a left/right combination in the second round sent George crashing to the ground. A ten count later and Page had the title winning knockout win.

It was back to MMA action for the next fight as Spencer Hewitt took on Giorgio Andrews for the vacant Flyweight title.

This one is quite easy to write up. They began by exchanging a few blows while trying to gauge the distance before they instigated a clinch against the cage. After both men jockeyed for position Andrews went on to score with the takedown, putting in some solid work on the ground.

It was pretty much the same in each and every round. It wasn’t flashy but it was solid, the only variation in the action coming towards the end of the fight when Andrews tried to avoid Hewitt, mainly because he knew he’d done enough to win the fight.

With no finish in sight it was down to the judges to render a decision. Unsurprisingly all three gave everything to Andrews.

The main event saw Nick Chapman challenging Linton Vassell for the Light Heavyweight title.

This proved to be a very interesting battle. It began with a jab from Vassell, but as the first round went on Chapman began to unload with the big blows. However, Chapman’s attack seemed a little one dimensional. It was as if he was looking for the big knockout blow each and every time.

Chapman would later go on to score with the only takedown of the round, although Vassell managed to get back to his feet straight away.

By the time the second round started Chapman looked exhausted, and it wasn’t long before Vassell scored with the takedown. He soon took his challenger’s back, synching in a rear naked choke for the submission win.

In conclusion – well, I suppose you could say that this show had everything. A brawl, some showboating, two fighters who looked like they cancelled each other out, and some very good light heavyweight action.

UCMMA 29 was a show with both it’s good and bad points. For instance, the showboating of Michael Page, although entertaining for the majority of the fans, was a little too much for me. I couldn’t help but feel that if he hadn’t posed as much he could have taken Jefferson George out a lot sooner.

The Sean Carter/Dom Clark encounter was, as I said before, one big brawl. As with Nick Chapman later in the show both men seemed to be looking for a big knockout blow each and every time. It wasn’t too pretty.

The highlights of the night for me came from the two light heavyweight fights. Linton Vassell really impressed me here. The champ put in a very good performance against an awkward opponent. Nick Chapman looked like he could have taken Vassell’s head off at any moment. The one thing he was lacking was a little more discipline with his striking.

Having read that you’re probably thinking that was my fight of the night. That particular honour goes to the Max Nunes/Iain Martell fight. Now that was good, and I’m not just saying that because Martell comes from my part of the world! Although I was a little disappointed that he lost!

So with all of that being said let’s wrap this thing up by giving UCMMA 29 the thumbs up.

Quotes of the Day for 23 December 2000 – Travel

The flurry of "vacation holds" coming in, not to mention the flood of "out of office" autoreplies from those who forgot to enter a vacation hold, reminds me that it's a good time to stay away from airports. For me, being home for the holidays means avoiding cars, buses, trains and planes. Here are some thought on Travel.

Van's signature

The quotes:

I feel about airplanes the way I feel about diets. It seems to me that they are wonderful things for other people to go on.
     - Jean Kerr

I always take abroad with me one really good soft pillow - to me it makes all the difference between comfort and misery.
     - Agatha Christie

The stride of passengers off an airplane is always jauntier than the stride on.
     - Tom Clancy

If you wish to travel far and fast, travel light. Take off all your envies, jealousies, unforgiveness, selfishness and fears.
     - Glenn Clark

It's no coincidence that in no known language does the phrase 'As pretty as an airport' appear.
     - Douglas Noel Adams

Rated 3.9 out of 5 by 38 reviewers.
Rated 2 out of 5 by My second color!! But.... I have these in black and love them- it was trial and error getting the right size but once you get it right these shoes are awesome. Stylish, comfortable and practical!!! I was thrilled to see an 'as is' in navy in my size. Just got them- and they're too big!! I know the size I need - I love my Hadyn Gloss in black. But the various colors run differently?? ! 03-04-16
Rated 1 out of 5 by Bad Choice I received these yesterday, and were thrilled to get them until tried them on. They are way too big. I wear a 9 these fit like a 10. Of all the Clarks shoes I've purchased this is the worst fit I've gotten so far. I wish I had read the reviews before I ordered, I could've myself, I gave them away rather than send them back. 12-24-15
Rated 4 out of 5 by Great for work Love this shoe, but it is a little snug I would recommend them for every day office wear or with jeans 12-04-15
Rated 4 out of 5 by Runs large These shoes are beautiful, comfortable, but they do run large I ordered half a size down and still had to put insoles to make them more snug. Aside from that this is the perfect shoe. I purchased the berry and I keep getting compliments. I'm going back for the navy. 11-01-15
Rated 4 out of 5 by Like brand new but run large Wish they had the navy in 7m still because the 7&1/2 were way too big; I walked right out of them:-( Would try "as-is" again though since the condition was brand new; no damage! Better luck next time! 10-01-15
Rated 5 out of 5 by Terrific Buy for Great colors Great fit, true to size and width. Teal and purple very hard to find,very pleased.Shipped in mint. Condition. 09-12-15
Rated 5 out of 5 by “As is” was “Brand new" Out of the box, shoe still had stuffing in it and the support rod. Obviously, these could have been reinserted. However, the stickers were still on the bottom and the shoe bottom showed no signs of dirt or scuffs. To the size, 100% accurate, I wear a size 9.5I wouldn’t suggest bulky socks. Possibly trouser socks, which I hate. Anywhoo, totally comfortable out of the box. My background, I have 1 bad foot that dictates all my shoe choices. I generally only wear the unstructured, but the choices are slim without looking geriatric and they are expensive. I typically go to the Clark’s store out at Williams Field Road in Gilbert, AZ. They practically know me by name. I don’t recommend shoes as gifts as they are a personal choice and too dependent on size and style which can fluctuate too greatly. I recommend it for the price. I can’t see this shoe NOT working out. Plus, you still get to return it. 07-20-15
Rated 5 out of 5 by Comfortable,Cute & Trendy I just received these shoes and tried them on right away. I wasn't sure if they would fit correctly . I took the advise of my fellow reviewers and it worked like a charm. I wear a size 10W. However , I bought 2 pairs in 91/2 wide and 2 pairs in 9 1/2 Medium . the 9 1/2M fits perfectly. The 91/2 W is a little too wide I will have to purchase innersoles to get the right fit . I just ordered 3 more colors in sizes 9 wide & 9 1/2 M for myself and 9 1/2W in Teal for my Sister. I am confident that the 9W will work for me. Again, thank you reviewers , without your input and my knowledge of Clarks shoes, my favorite brand , I would not have been able to figure out which sizes may work for me.The shoes I received are in good condition ."Thank U QVC for posting all reviews regardless, &"As Is." When I receive my next 2 pairs I will have these in 6 colors." What a Deal!" 07-07-15

The Editorial Letter

Red editing penWe’ve discussed editing before, and it can be confusing that the word “edit” can mean so many different things. In publishing, there are three basic types of edit that a book might go through (although the lines can be blurry):

The copyedit:

Detailed editing including the nitty gritty of grammar, punctuation, typos, word choice, even fact-checking.

The line edit:

More concerned with the clear expression of your ideas; internal consistency; word choices; believable dialogue; and other mechanics of the craft.

The substantive edit:

Sometimes known as the content edit, the developmental edit, or the macro edit, it deals with big-picture issues of story crafting, plot, and character development. For non-fiction, it’s concerned with the clear and logical flow of your ideas, your clarity and consistency, and the overall impact of your book and whether it reaches its goal. The substantive edit usually comes to the author in the form of…

The Editorial Letter

I know many authors tremble at the thought of receiving an editorial letter and I think it might be because you don’t know what to expect. So today I’ve lifted a bunch of actual sentences from editorial letters I’ve written in the past… just to give you an idea of what it looks like. (I’ve removed identifying details and changed character names.)

» After reading 1/3 of the book, I’m still not quite engaged with the story. I’m not sure what the major conflict is; I don’t know what’s at stake for these characters; I’m not clear on who the antagonist is and what he wants. Consequently, I haven’t begun to feel an excitement to see what happens.

» POV: The manuscript seems to be a cross between omniscient and deep third person POV. It confuses the reader. It’s not exactly objective, and yet we never get to connect deeply with characters. Connection with characters is what makes a story enjoyable for a reader.

» The writing is wordy—too many adjectives and adverbs. Add to that unnecessarily-fancy verbs, and it makes for an awkward read sometimes. There’s a fine line between being appropriately visual and overwriting it.

» You know how Elmore Leonard says in his “Rules of Writing” that we should try to avoid writing the parts readers tend to skip? Unfortunately, the hero’s dreams are the weakest piece of the book, and I found myself wanting to skip them.

» Setting and storyworld: This is a wonderful story that isn’t grounded in any particular place or time. Most of the time I felt confused about the location as well as the time period. I can’t tell if we’re in the real world or a world of your making; are we in present day or the past or the future?

» Secondary characters: As often happens with secondary characters who are similar to one another, I had a hard time differentiating between these two women. As I was reading, I found myself asking if one of them should be eliminated because they both seem to serve the same purpose—simply being friends with your heroine.

» This opening is overwritten, almost to the point of obscuring your meaning. If you cut half the adjectives, the problem would be fixed. Strong nouns and verbs are always more powerful than adjectives.

» This comparison doesn’t do anything for me. Be careful to use metaphors only when they expand on what you’re saying—when they help the reader visualize or understand. If there’s a chance the metaphor will cloud your meaning rather than illuminate it, don’t use it.

» These five long paragraphs are too much backstory in one place. They impede the forward movement of the story. You can get across what the reader needs to know right now in one paragraph, and drop other bits later, if and when the reader needs it.

» Watch for repetitiveness in both ideas and wording. Characters don’t need to repeat the same idea in dialogue in two or three different ways. Paring it down, tightening the writing, makes it stronger.

» Use contractions. Make sure your dialogue sounds like talking, not writing. You want to use contractions in prose also, not just dialogue, to help your writing sound more natural.

» I’d like you to examine your characters’ motivations in everything they decide to do. It’s really important that they do things out of motivations that make sense—not just because you need them to do something for the sake of your storyline. Your protagonist’s motivation has to be burning, and deep, and drive her and the reader through the book.

» What’s at stake for Lauren if she doesn’t reach her goal? And along with that, what’s at stake for others? For the world? If there’s nothing to lose by not reaching her goal, then there’s no motivation for the reader to follow Lauren through this journey.

» I’m struggling with Harley’s voice being not unique enough, being a bit generic, so that even though there is a ton of internal monologue about her background, I still feel she is a bit cardboard. I can classify her as “spunky heroine who overcomes all odds” and there is nothing about her that would make me want to avoid stereotyping her like that.

» Is the romance too predictable? Is there anything we can do about it given the storyline? Right now, it’s a given from the first chapter that Ben is our hero and we want Angie to fall for him, but nothing really serious interrupts that or gets in the way except for Angie’s internal demons. Should we add a little spice by having Harrison or one of the other guys show some interest in her? It would be fun if there were a hint of doubt that Ben and Angie would end up together.

I hope that gives you an idea of what an editorial letter might look like.

Does this make it sound more manageable? Or more scary? Tell us your own editorial letter experience!

  1. Sara Qondomon says:

    As I read, certain times looked like was my history, especially about the POV and the period where the characters are.

    Thanks a lot for this editorial letter!

  2. Hi my loved one! I want to say that this
    post is amazing, nice written and include approximately all
    important infos. I would like to look extra posts
    like this .

  3. People in the world take the mortgage loans from different banks, because that is comfortable and fast.

  4. Michelle says:

    I’m new to reading your blog but I am very impressed with what you’ve composed and put out there. I definitely look foward to reading more of your insight!

  5. Your editorial examples are wonderful, rather than scary. They actually helped figure out to fix a story that has needed major adjustment. Thanks 🙂

  6. Paul says:

    I’ve been reading your blog for a couple of years, and I’ve strongly disagreed with some points you’ve made. However, you are the best provider of solid, useable information of any of the agent bloggers. This post is an excellent example. Nice work.

    • Rachelle Gardner says:

      Paul, thanks for writing. I appreciate the words of encouragement. I’m also dying to know all the things you disagree with. 🙂

      • Paul says:

        >>Paul, thanks for writing. I appreciate the words of encouragement. I’m also dying to know all the things you disagree with.<<

        Rachelle, nothing too serious I should add. Points of editing style and expression — likes and dislikes, things that work and don't work etc in fiction. BTW, the new blog design is stunning.

        • Rachelle Gardner says:

          Thanks for the compliment on the blog design! I suppose you’re allowed to disagree with me every once in awhile. *wink*

  7. Wow! Wonderful information. Thanks so much.

  8. Naomi Musch says:

    I received such a letter just a few days ago. Reading these just makes me sigh with relief. “Whew. I’m not alone. It’s not so bad.”

  9. Mary says:

    This is my first trip to your blog and I clicked through because I saw someone link it on twitter. I’m nowhere near even thinking about getting editorial letters but your post helped make it less scary! Thank you for this post!

    It also gives me some notes on things I can look out for now while I’m writing my book.

  10. I’d love to have a scary editorial letter. You can send me one any time 🙂

    The clips are great advice too. Thanks.

  11. On a very small level… I’m excited about the thought of someday getting a letter like that. Up until now, I’ve gotten critiques from fellow writers (mostly unpublished) and contest judges. It would be exciting to get feedback from an actual publishing house editor.

    That said… those kind of changes (especially the 1/3 of the way in one!) WOULD be hard to hear. It is one of those “put on your big girl pants” times though, I think. (emphasis on big… given my chocolate-stress-eater bad habit!)

  12. I’ve received editorial letters before and often wondered what types of things others are hearing. It’s kind of like having a great (and honest) critique partner. Thanks for sharing!

    After reading that letter I can honestly say that ninety percent of that criticism would not apply to my story. 🙂

  14. You’ve done a great service by posting this, Rachelle. And to all of you here who have posted how much you would like to receive a letter such as the one Rachelle put together:

    Hire a freelance editor. Do your homework and ensure the person you hire is skilled at fiction editing, which is quite different from nonfiction. A good freelance editor will do substantive editing, stylistic editing, and copy editing, and will also do a critique or evaluation if it is deemed necessary.

    If you wait until you find a publisher or agent, you could be waiting a long time. In the meantime, engage a freelance editor to help polish your work and give you the kind of feedback Rachelle sets out in her letter. This may greatly improve your chances of finding an agent.

  15. As an independent editor, each of these comments feel so familiar! The jewel here is that most of these authors were agented and published. I will share this on Twitter and elsewhere. Thanks for this, Rachelle.

  16. Layla Fiske says:

    Thank you so much Rachelle. It is amazing how much insight a professional in the field can add to an m.s. A set of fresh eyes that come with an applied clarity of exactly what is needed to make the story flow.

  17. Pen and Ink says:

    Reading this post made me shiver. I know all of these things can be dealt with, but at times, they seem overwhelming. Thanks for sharing.

  18. Impeccable timing! I just had a phone call with a beta last night and her feedback was eye-opening. I walked away with a clearer understanding of what wasn’t working (honestly, I already had a hunch) and encouragement to press on.

    Thank you for taking the time to guide us along!

  19. It seems comforting to me, except that I would hope I or my readers would pick up on most of these issues before the book made it to an editor. (I’m assuming these examples don’t come from one letter, though. ;-)) There’s comfort in the fact that though these edits will require substantive changes, they are all concrete things that can be addressed, rather than vague “something’s missing” comments. It’s easier to fix things you can identify.

  20. Lori Benton says:

    My initial reaction after reading those excerpts is a longing for the day an editor finally takes such a careful look at one of my manuscripts and gives me that sort of helpful feedback and direction, because though they are all issues I try to address myself with my work, I’m sure I’m blind to much that other trained and objective eyes would catch. Like others have said, just reading these issues addressed to other writers causes me to take another look at my WIP and give all these story aspects deeper thought. I want this!

    I think my next reaction would be a brief period of feeling overwhelmed at the amount of work needing to be done. Then would come the determination to Just Do It, because it’s going to be so worth it in the end.

  21. Love this post, Rachelle! Especially since I’m in the trenches right now, having received my first editorial letter last week. Am I weird to love this stage in the writing process??

  22. This was great. Maybe I’m weird here but I would love to get feedback like that! It makes me want to instantly run to my WIP and find places to edit and strengthen.

  23. Jessica says:

    Hhahaaa, I’m dealing with a revision letter right now too. It’s not scary. Sometimes overwhelming because I’m not sure what the editors mean, but now I think I’ve got it figured out and am almost done.
    Thanks for sharing details! I think revision letters are wonderful because they’re concrete and that means I can fix something.

  24. Laila says:

    I enjoyed this peek into the world of editing. It’s wonderful, and I don’t feel threatened by it at all. Right now I’m going through my manuscript and following some of these suggestions on my own. I would love to have that second voice in the background telling me what does or doesn’t work.

  25. Loree Huebner says:

    Thank you Richard Mabry…I dreaded having a root canal once, but it wasn’t too bad.

    Rachelle, thanks for showing us that it’s not soooooooo scary afterall.

    Great post.

  26. Drusilla Mott says:

    Thanks so much for this. My first Inspirational Romance is right now going through the review process at a publisher. Even as I sent it, I found myself wondering about some of the things you have covered here, as far as it being too wordy and having too much backstory and narrative in spots. I added my thoughts and questions to the email that I sent the manuscript in, asking her to notice those areas and let me know if they could be made better. She thanked me for my input and said she would keep it in mind. I would hope I could take the criticism and suggestions as helpful advise and not as a personal attack…I am the newcomer, afterall, and can use all the help I can get.

    The information in this post will also help me with the story I am now working on because now I have some idea of what to keep in mind as I write. Thank you.

  27. Kerry says:

    Your examples have relaxed the butterflies! None were too shocking or scary. Perhaps my skin is thicker from working with a critique group. Plus, with an earlier draft of my novel, I paid for a professional edit. It was the most eye-opening experience. With all the changes and revisions under my belt, what’s a few more? (lol) Good to know the pros (published authors) still get those letters and comments. It’s all part of the process, I guess. Thanks for the peek inside the editing world.

  28. Richard says:

    I enjoy writing a post on my blog, but i really hate the editing part. But i know it must be done. Richard from the Amish settlement of Lebanon,Pa

  29. Lisa R says:

    These sound more like what you’d find in a rejection letter. I can’t believe someone with such large problems in their manuscript (i.e. you’re 1/3 of the way through the book and not engaged) would even make it past the agent, much less an editor.

  30. David Todd says:

    I look forward to the day when I might receive such a letter from an editor. Surely that day is not that far away.

  31. V.V. Denman says:

    This is interesting! I’ve always wondered what the scary editorial letter might include. I had envisioned a nightmare like, “Could you please re-write the entire book by Wednesday?”

    Even though, these examples are substantial edits, they’re do-able. I know I’m weird, but some of them even sound fun.

    This post also gives me hope for my own writing. I can see that every manuscript is not absolutely perfect when it goes to the agent/editor. That takes a teeny bit of pressure off.

  32. Cathy Gohlke says:

    This is great, Rachelle! it always helps to know what to anticipate, and especially to know that these are normal questions, comments and issues for an agent or editor to raise. That helps remove some of the sting when we get letters showing our work is less than perfect. In my experience editorial letters have enabled me to step outside myself and see my book as a first time reader would–a reader who not only reads, but knows how to make a book better. Sometimes I need a couple of days to digest the issues and questions, but once I’ve gained a little distance I’m thrilled to know the problems and go back to the writing board. Who but our agents and editors will so invest themselves in helping to make our books the best they can be? It’s wonderful to work with a committed team!

  33. Cassandra says:

    This is exactly how I handle writing critiques for my students (I teach freshman composition at a community college). Perhaps I need a career change…

  34. This was a truly helpful post, Rachelle. Especially now, as I’m in the midst of the final polishing up of my WIP and about to start looking for representation/publication. Knowing a bit about what to expect always takes some of the scariness out of things, and besides that these excerpts were great editorial advice too. Now I can check my MS and make sure it doesn’t have these problems before I send it off.
    Thanks so much for always having such straightforward advice and helpful information!

  35. Sarah Thomas says:

    The examples are fantastic! It’s incredibily encouraging to know that if the story is great and the writing is strong, agents and editors will take on the book and “fix” it. I also think it helps immensely to have been critqued by peers before you get to the editorial letter. I had to give up thinking my manuscript was perfect “as-is” long ago!

  36. Zan Marie says:

    Some of these are big jobs of revision, but the instructions are crystal clear. That’s exactly what I’d want as the writer.

  37. One of the benefits of being part of a great MFA program was that I learned to really appreciate this kind of deep critique. It stings at first, but when you’re able to get beyond that initial reaction, the advice is usually invaluable. No matter how much you work and rework your story, someone with a fresh perspective is bound to see the strengths and weaknesses more clearly. And it’s much easier to handle when this person approaches your work with the kind of gentleness that Rachelle shows in these excerpts. I hope most editors are this thoughtful!

    In the end, you want your manuscript to be the best it possibly can be, and if that means reworking some stuff along the way, I think it’s well worth the pain.

  38. Susan says:

    Thank you for this information. It’s loaded with great examples.

  39. John Waverly says:

    Great post. I have a love-hate relationship with this kind of feedback. I love that it can make my stories so much better, but I don’t like the amount of work one or two simple sentences can cause. It’s like a conductor who moves the wand a couple inches and the entire orchestra reacts.

  40. Rachelle, Thanks for shedding some light on the subject. I can attest from my own experience that an editorial letter, like a colonoscopy or root canal, is worse in the contemplation beforehand than in actual fact.
    Appreciate your openness in this blog.

  41. Peter DeHaan says:

    Although criticism of my writing is emotionally unwelcome, getting honest feedback like this would be invaluable and help me to improve as a writer.

    I have occasionally plied my copy editors and proofreaders for advice on how I can improve. While I would like to believe their accolades, I wonder if they are just trying to insure ongoing work from me by telling me how much they enjoy my work!

  42. David Lascelles says:

    Oddly enough,I have always been told that the line edit was what you describe as a ‘copy edit’. But that is minor semantics. A lot of good advice in here and definitely my experience of substantive edits… am expecting a letter like that sometime in September…

    • Rachelle Gardner says:

      You’re right – people refer to the different levels of editing in all different ways. And besides semantics, the edits themselves don’t really fit into neat categories. This makes it difficult for writers trying to hire a freelancer.

      • Rachelle, this is a great example of an editorial letter. However, I take exception to your comment that it’s difficult to hire a freelance editor because there are so many different levels of editing.

        In fact, it’s easy to hire a freelance editor. A good freelance editor needs only a sample of the writing and a synopsis from which to determine what levels of editing are needed. And even if this changes as the editing progresses (for example, if three chapters in it’s evident that more than a copy edit is needed), a good editor will know when to switch gears and how to handle it. In my editing business, deal with this kind of thing all the time.

        • Rachelle Gardner says:

          Arlene, I hear you. I just meant that if a writer doesn’t know what s/he needs, they could end up paying for the wrong kind of editing. It has happened countless times with authors I’ve come in contact with. I hear they’ve paid for a freelance editor and I can’t figure out what the editor did, because structurally the book needs so much work. Turns out they paid for more of a copyedit or line edit, when they needed a substantive edit. They paid to have the Titanic’s deck chairs rearranged, as it were.

  43. Twilla says:

    Forgot to say thanks, Rachelle, for doing what you do. You are AMAZING!

  44. Wendy says:

    Yep, I want this kind of letter.
    ~ Wendy

  45. Twilla says:

    Problem is that I love my story. Really, really love it, just the way it is. I’m hoping my new editor won’t send back a letter requesting a lot of changes. But I’ve heard of other writers getting request for mega changes from him, stuff like switching the pov from third to first. I don’t know how you move from being so in love with your book to taking your pen to it again and rewriting what you love. But maybe that’s the difference between a writer and an author.

  46. Lisa Jordan says:

    I had my first editorial letter experience in January while I was high on the excitement of getting “the call.” I think what made the letter easier to handle was knowing my editor was enthusiastic about the story. She loved the characters, the theme, and the writing. Her suggestions for changes made the story stronger and gave me a deeper insight into what that house looks for. I will admit my letter was an exception, not the norm, for the few changes that were suggested. I know it won’t be that way every time.

  47. How exciting! I love to edit, if I have direction. And I can only go so far on my own. Love it, thanks.

  48. Leigh Caron says:

    This is great. May I copy this so I can use it as a reference?

  49. Sherri says:

    My critique group has helped me so much with this as they are able to let me know how my story comes across to them. When I read their comments sometimes I think, “yes, they got it!” and sometimes I think, “where did that come from?” It’s a great reality check for me: am I telling the story I want to tell, and am I doing it well? What I know and think in my head doesn’t always translate to my story, and as much as I try not to, sometimes I realize that I’ve made an assumption about what my readers will understand. The is a great post, Rachelle. I hope to get an editorial letter one day! 🙂 Thank you.

  50. Jo says:

    Thanks for the real excerpts from editorial letters, Rachelle. It definitely makes them less scary. I’m one of those people who takes criticism seriously and would appreciate an editor pointing out weaknesses like “this opening is too long” and “use contractions to make dialogue sound like talking and not writing”. Last night I received a mail from an editor to whom I’d submitted two article queries earlier this week. My heart jumped into my throat and I opened his mail with great trepidation. However, he wrote to say he accepts both my magazine article queries and could I send them asap! I was thrilled and am working on the articles and photos this morning. What a welcome editorial letter! Regards, Jo Hedges, East Africa.

  51. Useful post once again. Rachelle, thanks.

  52. Neil Ansell says:

    From discussions over the structural edit of my book – I think perhaps this demonstrates how a good editor can get you to make major structural changes while still feeling good about yourself!

    ‘It is full of unique observations — of both nature and landscape — phrased with careful, clear-eyed yet often lyrical intensity. It is a both a portrait of a place and an exploration of human character — as well as a completely original study of the art of solitude, and of staying still. It deserves a very wide readership.

    In terms of editorial notes, I have made some very small suggestions throughout the manuscript, which I will pass on to J to consider and discuss with you, but I also have one important structural suggestion to get over a slight jerkiness in the narrative at the start of the book. These changes will allow the book to flow more naturally and to avoid the awkwardness of time shifts, while also hooking the reader more effectively into the narrative.

  53. That was very useful and encouraging, Rachelle. It’s reassuring to know that these types of letters also go out to the writers worth working with!

  54. Very useful post, thanks! I’m AMAZED that letters like this actually go out from an editor! So publishers actually take manuscripts that need THAT MUCH editing?? It really amounts to a total rewrite!

    Wow! I’m very encouraged! Maybe a publisher will actually give me a contract someday! Of course, I need to get an agent first…

  55. These are exactly the kinds of notes my Agent gives me, so I’m glad I’m not the only one who needed this kind of substantive input. It gives me hope that I’m not a lost cause.

    Woot 🙂

  56. Mike says:

    I really like this “behind-the-scenes” glimpse you’ve given us here on the editorial letters. It’s nice to know that publishers take their work very seriously once they’ve chosen to stand behind an author.

  57. Adam Heine says:

    Scary as heck! But, man, would I love to get this kind of advice from a professional of that level 🙂

  58. …to receive this letter from an agent would be just as exciting because what would that mean? Representation. Woot-Woot! 🙂

    Ok, I am lame. 🙂

  59. This may sound lame, but I would love to receive a letter like this because it would mean that I was a contracted author working with a publishing house. 🙂

    Are rewrites and changes fun? Of course not but the constructive criticism would be unbelievably helpful to me and so beneficial to my WIP.

  60. I think your comments sound exactly like the substantive feedback I value from an editor.

    One of my personal favorite editors in my freelance life is a super-busy guy who never emails, he calls instead. I write on some very geeky topics for him and he is not a geek. We will have a little small talk, then he will start with my lead… aaaaand work down the story, editing out loud as he goes…. aaand if I’m lucky, by the end of the convo he will say:

    “Now THAT’S it, hon. Now THAT’S your story!”

  61. Crafty Mama says:

    Kind of a weird question here, but are agents the only ones who write these letters? I love critiquing books and would love to have a job of doing so. I must admit, sometimes I’m a little confused as to where the job of an editor starts and the job of the agent ends.

    • Rachelle Gardner says:

      No, editors are the ones who write these letters. You may get one from the editor at your publishing house, but long before you even have an agent or a publisher, you could hire a freelance editor (if you wanted to) to do this kind of editorial review on your book.

      Just fyi, the going rate if you want an experienced editor is about $1500 (but varies widely). So if you have an agent who gives you this kind of review, be aware of the value of what they’ve given you.

      • Crafty Mama says:

        Ahh, I see. I thought you had written those letters as an agent. 🙂 I was a bit cornfuzzled.

        I’m actually on the freelance editor end of things here. However, I’d eventually like to work in the publishing industry and am still learning about how things work. I guess I’m just not always clear on what agents do.

  62. Beth K. Vogt says:

    Before my first editorial letter (or revision letter) I’d attended a workshop by author Colleen Coble. She encouraged writers to embrace their revision letters–and that’s what I did when I received mine. I celebrated! Before I made any changes, I read through the letter twice and mulled over it for a few days, as my agent suggested. And then I decided to tackle the minor changes first and save the more challenging changes so I had more time to ponder how to tackle them. My revisions covered everything from clarifying what my character’s did for a living to detailing the setting a bit more to (surprise!) creating a third POV in my book. That change alone added depth and tension to my story.

  63. Rachelle Gardner says:

    Whenever I discuss revisions and editing, people invariably ask, why would you take on a project that clearly needs so much work?

    I’ve addresed that in this post.

    • I read the other article you linked and found this especially fascinating:

      “…10 pages of notes indicates that I believe the author is worth this kind of time and effort; that with work she can become great; and furthermore, that she’s capable of handling this intense level of rewrite. Rather than a put-down, the big revision letter is a vote of confidence.”

      I know when I beta-read for someone else, the more notes I make, the more into the story I am. It’s always a sign of boredom when I let pages go by without inserting some kind of comment.

      The samples you provided are exactly the kind of thing I hope my critique partners will provide, and try to offer the same thing in return. If I am taking their stories seriously, I expect them to do the same. The thought of receiving this kind of feedback excites me, but not because it would mean representation… rather, I am always eager to improve my writing in any way I can.

  64. Thanks for putting up actual sentences from the letters, Rachelle. What’s wonderful is this just sounds like my crit group–they’re awesome (even though sometimes I wish they weren’t so awesome and just loved everything I wrote to begin with! ;P )I get these kind of comments sporadically in my crit group already, so I shouldn’t have too much of a knee-jerk/depressed reaction to see such things in an agent/editor letter. 2 of my crit partners are published (well, one will be in April) and I’ve given them such comments, so I know that the good writers need these kind of comments no matter how many books they’ve written–which is comforting.

  65. Natalie says:

    I wanted to respond to Amber and Sarah. I am an editor, not an agent, so there isn’t usually the same issue of whether I will chose to accept an author/maunuscript. However, I think you might be surprised how few books just need a touch up on their spelling and punctuation. Even the best works usually need some help here and there. If it has sufficient potential, the flaws can be worked on.

    Authors see their MS as their polished, finished creation. Editors see it as the starting point. There are almost always substantive problems that need to be addressed. Writing groups, critique groups, and professional editors all help to get the story to publishable quality.

  66. Olivia Newport says:

    It’s important to think of the editorial letter as a conversation, and collaboration. I’ve been on both the editorial and writer sides of shaping a book, and I know editors really are trying to bring out the best in the writer in a way that satisfies the reader.

  67. These are always things I try to keep in mind while writing/editing, so I hope that they wouldn’t shock me too much when someone else, whether agent or editor suggests them to me (unless I think I’ve already covered them!) =) But I think it’s always good to go back through each scene and try to visualize at least three ways for things to turn out, and then pick the best way (when talking about things being predictable).

  68. Sarah says:

    My reaction was similar to Amber’s. Many of those seem like pretty big issues. Would you take on a project with those kinds of concerns or rewrites required?

  69. Cory says:

    Now this was helpful. Would you get one from your agent, when you’re getting the MS ready for submission, or your editor? Or both?

    • Rachelle Gardner says:

      It’s possible to get this letter from either agent or editor. It’s more common coming from the editor at your publishing house, though.

  70. Love the simplicity of your explanations. Thanks for spelling it out so clearly. I’m not at the point of anticipating editorial letters yet, but it’s reassuring to see what I can expect when that day comes.

  71. Amber says:

    These sound pretty scary to me, in that it seems like they all will require substantial changes. I could see these happening where you had an existing client who was writing a second or third book. But what about new clients? Would it make sense to take on a new client/book if it had such large problems as these, or is that pretty much par for the course?

    • Rachelle Gardner says:

      The notes I’ve included here were mostly for books that were not only agented, but contracted with publishers. That’s the point — I’m trying to show you that even very talented multi-published authors get editorial letters! Actually several of the notes here were for authors who have 5+ successful books out.

      • I second this. I’m on my fifth commercially published book, having enjoyed very good success in at least one market, and I still anticipate a letter from my editor filled with comments very similar to these ones. The day they stop coming will not be a day I celebrate because I think I’ve finally attained perfection, it’s the day I will start to suspect my editor is no longer doing her job.

        It usually smarts for about 24-48 hours, which I like to describe as the grieving process (in which I mourn the beautiful, lyrical book I thought I had written and come to terms with the rather ugly mess that I actually did write). Then I get excited about making the book better and dive in.

  72. Kim Kasch says:

    Thanks for making the scary seem not so intimidating 😀

Aryan Narrations: White Supremacy and Negro Subordination II

The White race is the only race that brings the gifts of civilisation with it when it arrives somewhere. The only other people to come close, the Mongoloids, have no real history at all from before the time of Christ. They have records yes, but no actual remains of any previous civilisation and the traces of habitation that can be found in China, show the original inhabitants to have been White. This can be clearly seen in the Caucasoid features of the mummies found in the Tamir basin and is also confirmed by the dolmens and other megalithic structures, found there and in all other places that the original White inhabitants of the earth colonised.

Thanks to the discovery of writing, knowledge was able to be passed down from one to generation to the next, gradually accumulating over the years and allowing our race to continue its advance up until now. The Negro however has never even had an alphabet and has never been able to pass information from one generation to the next. The history of the world is the history of the White race, there is no history of the Black race and his society is exactly the same now, as it was at the dawn of time. Every record we have of him shows him in the same social standing as he is now, needing the White man to clothe and feed him and at the time this book was written, returning the favour by doing manual labour.

The author was of the opinion that without so-called slavery, the Negro would go extinct and this surely would have happened too, if we had not been so stupid as to still be feeding, clothing and housing him, but without expecting him to do any work for it.

The Negro has done nothing whatsoever to contribute to our civilisation other than to provide menial labour and does not deserve any of the rights he has been given, because he is incapable of understanding the duties that come with those rights. Democracy was only ever intended to apply to people of the same race, the idea that a creature who had never contributed to developing a system of governance should then have a say in how a White country should be run, just by virtue of his being born there would have been laughed out of Athens if it had ever been suggested. The Greeks saw the Negro as an untamed savage, a barbarian barely capable of speech, let alone capable of being a citizen.

The final one of these three Narrations deals with the colour difference between the races and demonstrates how an incredible amount of information about a White man can be discovered just by looking at his face. His virtues, inner nature, modesty, the very moral nature of a man can be told from the features of their face. None of this can be detected on a Negro’s face though and the reason for this can only be that he is not actually capable of experiencing certain states of being.

Network Rail fined £100,000 and face a £1m fine for Safety Breaches

Published 4th March 2013

Oh dear what can the matter be – Passengers inconvenienced by Victorian loo ……..

Network Rail (NR) has been fined £100,000 and ordered to pay costs of £25,000 for Health and Safety breaches at Cheshunt in Hertfirdshire when a track worker was seriously injured in March 2010. The prosecution was brought by the Office of Rail Regulation (ORR) whose organisation includes the Railway Inspectorate.

Terence Wray was injured on March 30, 2010, while attending to a track fault at Cheshunt Junction while trains continued to run. He moved away from a train to what is known as a position of safety on the line but the train was diverted to the line by NR on which Mr Wray was waiting and was consequently hit resulting in his injuries.

ORR’s investigations suggested that the work being undertaken had not been properly planned and managed and involved unqualified staff which formed part of the Hearing’s evidence at St Albans Crown Court. Safer methods were available but the work was undertaken on the live railway as services operated exposing the workers to unnecessary danger. NR had previously pleaded guilty to the charges at Hertford Magistrates’ Court on November 13, 2012.

They said:

ORR’s , Tom Wake, Deputy Director Railway Safety, said: “The safety of track workers, and all those working on Britain’s railways, is a top priority for ORR. Where maintenance work takes place it should be planned, well managed and not place workers in unnecessary danger.

“In this case, NR’s management and planning for maintenance of the track at Cheshunt Junction, Hertfordshire was not good enough. The company’s failures caused the entirely avoidable and life-changing injuries for its employee Terence Wray. “Since the incident Network Rail has reduced the number of works taking place on tracks whilst trains continued to run, further protecting the safety of its employees. The regulator will continue to monitor the company’s management of rail maintenance and we will always step in when required to protect those working on, and using, the railway.”

Network Rail faces £1m fine after level crossing fatality

NR was found guilty of breaching health and safety laws after a car passenger died after being hit by a train at a level crossing after Adrian Maund, signalman at Moreton On Lugg erroneously raised the barriers allowing traffic to cross the line.

The accident happened in January 2010 resulting in the death of 52 year old Jane Harding and serious injuries to her husband Mark Harding. NR was found guilty at Birmingham crown court and the resultant fine could be £1m. During the Hearing it emerged that NR had taken the decision not to automate the crossing including linking it to the signalling system which prevents the barriers being raised when a train approaches.

The signalman raised the level crossing barriers in error when the Arriva Manchester to Milford Haven service was still approaching the crossing but the signalman thought it had passed the crossing. The Signalman and NR denied breaching health and safety regulations but Mr Maund was found guilty of failing to take reasonable care for the health and safety of other people likely to be affected by his actions or omissions at work.

NR in turn was found guilty on a charge for failing to ensure the Hardings were not exposed to risks to their health and safety, according to the Crown Prosecution Service and will be sentenced at Birmingham crown court in April.

They said:

Jayne Salt, of the West Midlands Crown Prosecution Service, said afterwards: "Adrian Maund and Network Rail both played very different parts in the tragic death of Jane Harding. Mr Maund made a mistake in raising the level crossing barriers when a train was approaching. Whilst his was a momentary error, his failure to follow procedures and checks, as he had been trained to do, has rightly resulted in his conviction.

"His employers, on the other hand, made a deliberate decision not to install a safety device which would have detected the oncoming train and kept the barriers down. That decision was based on cost.

"It is right that an organisation that holds the safety of the public in its hands on a daily basis has been held to account for its decision making. My thoughts are with Mrs Harding's family and I hope that this result gives them some small measure of comfort."

Network Rail spokesman said: "Mrs Harding's death at Moreton-on-Lugg level crossing was a tragedy that has had a profound impact upon many families and railway staff. We are deeply sorry that through no fault of their own, the Hardings found themselves involved in a fatal train accident.

Comment from rail.co.uk

NR has faced criticism over level crossing accidents which 99.9% of the time is the users fault, and they are trying to close as many crossings as possible but often face local opposition. This is because closing a crossing often involves cutting down trees, and building a bridge with some land take. So far NR has spent £130m closing nearly 700 crossings. This was a very rare regrettable incident with profound results.

Oh Dear what can the matter be?

Network Rail has issued a bizarre apology after trains were delayed while the signalman became stuck in a lavatory! The inconvenience happened when the signalman at Henwick signalbox near Worcester could not be contacted.

After the driver of the 1513hrs Hereford to Paddington train could not talk to the signalman, he went to see what was wrong to find the signalman stuck in the outside toilet!

They said:

A Network Rail spokesman apologised for ‘the inconvenience’ caused to passengers saying "Much of the railway is still controlled from Victorian built signal boxes, which often have outside loos.

NR is replacing these old manually operated signal boxes in a 30 year project which will see modern signalling centres run the railway.

Rail Regulator announces that the major charter train operator is prohibited from running rail services

Published: 17th February 2016

Branch Line Society raises tens of thousands for charity...

...as its back to the future for Hertfordshire Railtours

The Office of Rail and Road (ORR) has taken an unprecedented decision in issuing a Prohibition Notice to West Coast Railway Company Ltd (WCRC) with immediate effect. This means the company will not be able to operate any trains until further notice when it can satisfy ORR that it has new systems and processes in place.

The company operates about 95% of all steam trains and 75% of all non-steam trains on the national network which means that some charter train promoters will be facing an uncertain future. Only a few such companies will not be affected by this ORR decision and these are Belmond, UK Railtours and Pathfinders. Affected promoters may well switch to other train companies for their operation enabling them to operate as normal. If you have booked, call your promoter.

There have been several safety-related incidents in the last year which have brought on the decision as a result of which, ORR launched a review of WCRC’s safety certification in December 2015. In March 2015, a steam service passed a red signal at Wootton Bassett junction in Wiltshire narrowly avoiding collision with an express train setting off worries.

As a result, ORR issued an Improvement Notice to WCRC to strengthen its approach to safety management which has now led to the Prohibition Notice.

They said:

Ian Prosser, HM Chief Inspector of Railways at ORR said:

"A decision to stop a train operator from running rail services is not taken lightly. However, my concerns about West Coast Railway Company’s lack of appreciation of the seriousness of a collective range of incidents over the last year, coupled with ORR’s concerns on the company’s governance, regrettably make this prohibition necessary. These failings create a significant risk to operations on the mainline network.

"We want to encourage successful business operations on our railways and hope WCRC will be able to put in place steps to ensure fit and proper safety management with a view to resuming operations. Our inspectors stand ready to work with the company to support and advise as it strengthens its approach to safety. Our inspectors stand ready to work with the company to support and advise as it strengthens its approach to safety.”

UK Railtours (UKR) team up with Belmond Northern Belle and return to old trading name

Belmond until now has mainly operated its Northern Belle across the UK with some visiting London, but none commence from the metropolis. UK Railtours’ John Farrow has said that the Riviera Trains’ owned ‘Royal Scot’ carriages are now looking past their best so it is time to look elsewhere for up-market carriages.

The answer is the agreement between UKR and Belmond which enables the luxury train to operate from London on a monthly basis. UKR will continue to use the Belmond British Pullman from time to time on a limited number of special trips. The Northern Belle has just 276 seats (all first class) and has a top speed of 100mph so can cover a large daily mileage to far away destinations and these monthly trips commence in May.

UKR traded as Hertfordshire Railtours (HRT) from 1979 to 2005 when the ill-fated FM Rail took over and then went bankrupt. HRT chartered trains across the UK and this brand name will be re-introduced using franchised operators’ trains such as High Speed Trains, Silver trains, Javelins and some 50 year old Mark 1 carriages.

It is also hoped that 2016 will see the Brighton Belle train back in main line action which will add an altogether new dimension to rail travel. It has not operated for over 40 years.

Branch Line Society raises tens of thousands of pounds for charity

The Branch Line Society (BLS) runs special enthusiast services in conjunction with franchised train operators and these trains visit routes that passenger trains do not normally cover. Their last train was operated by Merseyrail and raised over £11,000 for Charity and more are planned.

Their next train runs on 27 February and is called ‘The North Midlands Tracker and operated by East Midlands Trains (EMT) using 2-car Class 156. The train departs from Crewe at 0720am, Stoke, 0750am and Uttoxeter at 0820am. The train visits a pair of main line connected preservation centres, Barrow Hill Engine Roundhouse and Great Central Railway (Nottingham) as well as some very rare track. At the latter railway passengers will be offered a ride hauled by prototype HST Power Car 41001 and Class 56 No. 56097 in 'top and tail' mode.

Pacer Powerhouse

After that, the next outing is on one of the Department for Transport hated trains, a Pacer! This runs from Manchester Piccadilly just after 9am to Huddersfield-Leeds on March 6 on a Class 142 and is called ‘The Northern Powerhouse Pacer’ operated by Northern Rail.

Pathfinders are promoting a trip to the Borders Line on April 9 using ‘Deltic’ No. 55009 on ‘The Deltic Borderer’ which runs from Derby and stations to York to Edinburgh and Tweedbank and return.

At the elite Hilliard Preparatory School, the competition is fierce, the gossip is worse, and Blake Dorsey has just arrived back on campus after an unexplained two-year absence.

Skylar Banks has a hunch Blake's in trouble. Skylar's the most likely candidate for valedictorian, but she's no stranger to tricky situations herself. She's got a reputation for taking her relationships straight from JV to varsity, and that rep is about to catch up with her.

Charley Morton doesn't have time for Blake's problems—not if he plans to get into Harvard like his parents expect, or to win over his dream girl (a.k.a. Skylar). But then Blake takes off for New York City, and Charley, Skylar, and her roommate, Marissa, have no choice but to risk their perfect transcripts to find him. It's a journey that will change the way they see each other— and themselves—forever.

Washington Wizards Win With Defense And Timely Shooting

By Thomas Jones
Geoff Burke – US PRESSWIRE

The Washington Wizards attempted to give this game against the Philadelphia 76ers away. After being up by double digits a few times, relinquishing the lead a few times, and losing Bradley Beal to a sprained ankle, they finally pulled out the win with a John Wall jump shot. Defense and timely shooting has been the key to the Wizards winning games all season and tonight was no different.

Missing in this sub par season by the Wizards has been there defensive effort. They only allow 95.5 points per game which ranks them in the top 10 in the NBA. They also rank in the top 10 in field goal percentage as well as three point field goal percentage. Even without their full complement of players the Wizards have put in max effort on defense all season. That trend continued against the 76ers, they held them to only 38.8 percent shooting for the game.

While the defense has been stellar the offense leaves a lot to be desired. The main culprit has been scoring droughts. Tonight was no different as they suffered through a five plus minute scoring drought in the fourth quarter before Wall took over the game. Wall scored six consecutive points at the end of the fourth but none as crucial as the game wining jumper he hit with four seconds left on the clock. Lack of a shot has been one of the major issues with Wall but he showed extreme confidence when he stepped up to take that big shot at the end of the game.

The Wizards can’t continue to go through long scoring droughts and expect to win games. They need to step up on offense and take the pressure off of their defense. Every win is a good win for a team trying to finish the season strong but this was a big win for Wall. After all of the talk earlier in the season about whether or not he is a franchise player, Wall one the game by not only hitting the game winner but also by getting a key block on Evan Turner in the last minute. Great win for the Wizards.

Much ado about nothing i think. I haven't seen a noticeable or sustained drop off in defensive intensity... the only thing that's suffered a bit are rebounding numbers and offensive production but he hasn't been getting 40 mpg lately either. Rookies no matter their age will go through cycles... i dont think we panic to be honest.

Let's ignore ranking for a moment: the US has twice the per capita gun ownership that Switzerland does. So sure, the US is 1st and Switzerland is 4th but the US is 1st by quite a bit.

Of course, the question is more complicated than either of us has indicated thus far.

Pro-Line has just released their version of the latest Lambo; here’s the story straight from Pro-Line:
The Gallardo arrived earlier this year to fight in the ever-competitive super-car market. Priced to take a slice out of Porsche and Ferrari sales, this little (in comparison to its Murcielago counterpart) 500hp AWD monster looks to become an instant favorite. Pro-Line has taken this perfect opportunity to offer this outstanding new design to the R/C market, and enter it in the ever-competitive world of 190 and 200mm bodies. Chiseled sides, sloped nose, and distinct silhouette define its Italian styling. Every detail of this car has been sculpted into crystal clear lexan. All of the lights, grills and logos are included on a detailed decal sheet. This body also features paint-then-peel protective film for paint over-spray and a window mask set. An add-on rear wing provides the rear traction for high-speed racing, but can also be left off for the smooth street look. Available in 190 and 200mm versions.

About Us

About Us

In 2005, a small group of parents, family members and individuals with disabilities joined together with leading thinkers and practitioners in the disability and asset building community to launch the National Disability Institute. Unified by common values and a vision to build together a better economic future for individuals with disabilities and their families, NDI was incorporated and approved as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit corporation.

Our strength is our expertise and proven experience in creative problem-solving and a focus on solutions that produce tangible impact for individuals, families, communities, states, and government. Through the power of collaboration with federal agencies, major corporations, financial institutions and nonprofit organizations, NDI has brought new attention to the possibilities of economic empowerment that has changed thinking and behavior at an individual and systems level. As a not-for-profit 501(c)(3) organization, NDI does not engage in lobbying activities.

The mission of National Disability Institute is to drive social impact to build a better economic future for people with disabilities and their families.

We envision an environment where people with disabilities have the same opportunities to achieve financial stability and independence as people without disabilities.

NDI has four enduring values that guide all decision making and activities and help set strategic direction for the future.

  1. We value all individuals across the spectrum of disability as productive contributors to the vitality of communities.
  2. We value self-determination and informed decision making that empower individuals with disabilities to have choices and direction that respects their individual preferences.
  3. We value the benefit of collaboration among all stakeholders including people with disabilities and the public and private sectors to design, implement, and improve opportunities for individuals with disabilities to participate in the economic mainstream and advance their financial independence.
  4. We value ensuring access to public benefits as simply one piece of our overall vision to promote economic stability for persons with disabilities.
