I've heard there's some rule about publishers not accepting material that's being considered elsewhere - the first read rule or something. Can anyone name it please?
That's very useful, thanks.
"Insanity; doing the same thing again and again and expecting a different result" (Albert Einstein).
Once upon a clear dark night an elderly man with a wicked cat who ate all of his freshly caught shrimp in a most peculiar, yet satisfyingly white china bowl.

The Cat in the Hat is hilarious. I loved that. Haven't read it in a while though.
Anything with a good plot that's easy to read.
I prefer short chapters - I can read it faster.
I find it fluctuates depending on mood and general commitments.
I wish I could describe characters better.
I made a rough outline of the order of the main events in the main plots and the subplots - best of both worlds I've found.
