Through a writer's e-mail list, I've just come across a blog called Guide To Literary Agents. There seens to be a lot of very good advice there, including one about "Agents' Pet Peeves in Chapter 1. Going through the list, I believe I can pat myself on the back for avoiding most or all of these "pet peeves" in the first chapter of The Invaders, but perhaps not all. On the other hand, I'm furiously revising The Invaders, whih, among other things, needs a timeline for me to refer to. So, sadly, I won't be needing to follow through on this any too soon. On stil another hand, though, I intend to keep looking at it from time to time, just so I can keep on avoiding what literary agents hate, and, I hope, improve my writing as I go along.

Yeah, that's a good blog. I'd read it often...
I'm glad you liked it. I guess my blog is getting to somebody, for better or worse!

I read it regularly. Always worth a look. Thanks for the effort you put in.
Terryt and all:
I am always on the lookout for sites and resources that writers or would-be writers can use. If I find them helpful, I'm sure others will, also. And when I blog, well, I have some opinions, but that's what blogs are for, or so "they" say.
