What's in your manuscript?

Have you submitted query letters, only to receive "not right for our list" rejection emails . . . or nothing at all?

The potential cause could be basic writing mechanic errors in your query, synopsis, and/or sample pages that identify you as a writing "rookie."

Does your work contain writing mechanic errors like:

• non-descriptive adjectives
• overused weak verbs
• trite adverbs
• misplaced modifiers
• run-together sentences
• a profusion of "red-flag" words

If so, the cost (to the publisher) to edit your manuscript until it is publication worthy will cause it to be rejected. This is a business decision. (It may feel personal, but it's not.)

Molli, without your revision advice, RATCHET wouldn't be here on the shelf at Barnes and Noble. . . . from three-times published author, Nancy Canavaugh.
