Synopsis

There is much more to writing than just putting words down on the pages. Amateur writers often have pages filled with common mistakes that tell that Acquiring Editor at a publishing house, or the Literary Agent they want to submit to, that they have not honed their writing skills, and their manuscript usually lacks polishing. The sad truth is, you get from 1 to 5 pages to hook that editor or agent into your story. If they aren't pulled in within those few pages, they will toss your manuscript and go on to the next one in their slush pile. You may have the most wonderful story, but if it is riddled with common beginner mistakes and amateurish writing, they will never read enough of it to find out if it is good or not. Learn what things to AVOID in your writing that turn off editors and agents. Learn the secrets to more effective writing, pacing, sentence structure, plotting, characters that come alive on the pages, and the many dos and don'ts that editors and agents look for in great writing. Look for Tina Foster's other books on the craft of writing available for Kindle.
