What Agents Hate


From the Writers Digest basically:
bad writing,
lots of back story early on
First chapters where nothing happens
I woke up and it was all a dream
tricks.

and what not to do (be rude after a rejection)

And here's something that has nothing to do with agents (except perhaps in the most convoluted metaphor within a metaphor) but still read post turtle.

The point is, read your submission before you send it out, check and recheck with the article in mind.
