While I'm waiting, What it takes

[onyxhawke]

While I'm waiting for more entries for the bad cover letter contest. I figured I'd say a little bit more about what it takes to become published or picked up by an agent.

The "it" or portion of "it" that I as a reader, agent and sales schlep is "what" and "who" are operative. What do I know, what do i feel, what do I think.

I want to know what

Excellent! I know one thing I personally strive for is to have most characters have more going on in their life than what's just what's required for the plot. I think it partly comes from my acting days. Having done a few "Soldier #4" parts, I think just about every character should potentially be the hero of their own story.
