What agents hate to see in Chapter 1

Post by CatLin »

I followed a link that Shann left in the Water Cooler to a Writer's Digest article, then surfed to this story...

I thought it would be helpful to all you Page Turner Contest peoples. (Maybe someday, I'll be one too! At least now I know what NOT to write. :D)

Love,
