Morris Fri, 30 Jan 2009 00:13:23 +0000 http://bryanallain.com/blog/?p=1345#comment-10336 Bryan, some suggestions: 1. Drop the subtitle from the pitch unless you have a lot of floors to traverse.

1. Drop the subtitle from the pitch unless you have a lot of floors to traverse. [Sorry, Alabama doesn't have high-rises.]

2. Drop the adjective “great” stories. That’s for the reader to decide.

3. I don’t know if you want to sell the book so much as yourself. But that’s because you’re my friend.
