Go....Stop!

I don't know if you've seen this post about the main reasons agents, and editors, often stop reading. It made me look at my manuscript in a whole new way.

Add to that the posts Kristin Nelson is doing  about why she will pass even if the writing is good and  you've got a great little great little checklist for revisions.

Pacing seems to be a big one.  I highly recommend you read these articles in depth. You'll be glad you did.

  6. Kristen Nelson's blog is a great resource! We're lucky to frequently have her at our conference (though it's been a couple years now) since we're both in Colorado. I'll check these out, thanks!

  7. Pacing, definitely. Though that often has to do with voice, too...
