It was a mess. I had been told it moved slow, which I was starting to suspect, so I took action immediately. I’m excited about what I have come up with. I think it’s a HUGE difference. I feel like the description is more real and the suspense is slightly more suspenseful. (Creative words there!)

So here is my problem, the challenging part…I’ve already queried some REALLY good agents and had a MS request that I haven’t heard back on yet. I am so disappointed in myself because now I’m going to lose those chances due to my slow starting chapter.

Has this ever happened to you? What did you do?
