The agent or editor looks at a manuscript and asks: "How can I make money with this?" A reviewer or any reader reads a novel and thinks: "Do I like this?" The money question is a huge hurdle and arguably an impossible question to satisfy without being able to see into the future. The lens that reviewers or readers look through is much different. I'm glad I'm able to go straight to readers, because if they like it, then they will give me money.Tracy Falbehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11123036773665001783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37083420.post-85034988342984043282011-04-18T10:14:27.733-07:002011-04-18T10:14:27.733-07:00Thanks.
