Holding On - a novel

- I wrote a novel, represented by Sheil Land. One publisher thought it was "compelling, but it wouldn’t be easy to categorize – it is somewhere between ‘literary’ and ‘commercial’, and would need to be one or the other to be pitched for successfully in an acquisition meeting." Another said, 'It’s pacy and gripping, and the plot is great, but it lacks that lighter women’s fiction feeling. The writing is undeniably good but I’m not quite sure how I would position it on our list.'A third commented that it "is a warm, engaging and easy read but this ‘middle market fiction’ is a really tough area', while a fourth considered that, "It is a good story (stories) well told, but just missing the X-factor that would make me fall in love with it." I wanted to write an entertaining novel that I would like when I was in the mood for something thoughtful & amusing that I could enjoy without too much effort. If you would like to read it yourself, you can find it at http://cargocollective.com/Unrealities/Holding-On-a-novel.

ReplyDeleteIf you go to my comments on Gaw's site under 'no posts for a bit' you will get a flavour of (liquid)Night Nurse. You are right about the tabs - I think they put a stronger sedative in those. The liquid is easier to control, keeps you in a state of suspended animation and, as Nige discovered a while ago, you can have a lot of fun with it when you are perfectly healthy
ReplyDeleteMahlerman - I have obtained both liquid and capsules now and shall begin experimenting immediately. Watch out for some posts written in a state of suspended animation
