Writing Pages That Will Make You Competitive in the Marketplace

In today’s episode, Byron Lane joins Bianca, Carly, and CeCe to critique Books with Hooks submissions while also talking about Big Gay Wedding.

During the episode, they discuss a character’s why’s; being too on the nose/predictable with plot points; the use of a foreign language; the element of surprise; weaving humour into the story; prologues that have got to go; moving between different POVs (i.e., third-person close and omniscient); choosing the biggest sucker punch POV for each scene; literary devices; jolting the main character into action; writing competitive pages; heightening conflict; and challenges between first and second books.
