Coming down to the end of the Brenda Novak auction for Diabetes Research in which I am offering to evaluate a novel proposal (that’s up to 50 pages of text and up to 5 pages of synopsis). Bidding for my entry ends on Sunday, May 30th! (Some others go through the 31st.)
And happy Memorial Day weekend for those State-Side.
As someone trying to write a fantasy novel, I’m curious to know: what grabbed you in the two fantasy queries you requested fulls of? Was it character, plot, world, or something else?
