    Boo. My first 250 words are too dull! :( I hate these first X# word contests.

    Amanda! You need to whip those 250 into shape and enter that contest. I rewrote my entire 1st chapter thanks to the feeback and most of mine was positive. The point is that most agents won't read past the 1st page so it forces you to sharpen your hook. Send it to your crit partners, heck you can send it to me! :) But definitely consider this contest

    Margo - you are very welcome! :) It's a fantastic contest.
