MEMO TO THE SLUSH PILE #2

Re: Your Bio

Are you Anne Rice incognito? Tad Williams or George R.R. Martin? If so, I can understand how you might be 'taking the world by storm' . But until you learn how to handle characterization effectively, I think you've a ways to go.

  1. Normally your slush letters and memos are very educational but this is just funny! To top it off, it's a cliche as well!!

    Of course, good writing avoids cliches like the plague. Comparisons are as bad a cliches though. And writers should never generalize. Also, always avoid alliteration. . .
    It's okay, I'll stop now.

    Thanks again,
