What turns an agent OFF?
If this is a burning question for you, then I am snogging the blog that answers this and much, much more.
Heidi Grace Bleackley covers what she learned at Writers Idol - which was exactly what you'd expect - first page auditions in front of four agents at the recent Surrey International Writers Conference. Hugely enlightening info for writers of all genres. (I know it means following my link but it's worth checking out!)
AND, her previous post has her notes from Robert Dugoni's editing workshop, along with a book giveaway which a most worthy and talented follower won.
Heidi is also a gamer. Oh yeah. This lady has all the right ingredients to conjure bestsellers. Can't wait, can't wait, CAN'T WAIT!
Now, since it is raining (again) it's time for me to choose a jigsaw to put together. These are all mystery puzzles, where there's no picture, just a mystery to solve. I have to read the story and put the puzzle together to find clues about the solution - perfect for dark winter nights! And I haven't solved a single one yet in spite of my (dubious) brilliantosity. I recycle them so if you'd like one when I'm done, then just let me know.
Oh, and are any of you shareholders in Twitter as of today? Me neither. How about NaNoWrMo? How's that going for you? If you don't want to talk about it, I understand.
Keep writing folks!
