One of the things keeping me from blogging has been a rewrite on my unsold novel Valentine’s Night. I’m nearing the end of that revision, and the MS has gone from 75K to around 95K, and that’s with some cutting. I’ve attempted to address the issue that I think has kept it from selling, the lack of any depth to my antagonist. It was one of those problems that no one really flat out said, it was subtle enough that most readers couldn’t put a finger on why they were disappointed. I have to thank fellow novelist Linda Robertson for helping me zoom in on the problem.
She also said my title sounded like soft-core porn, so I have to fix that too.
