...about…?” itch, that hint of something left undone, unfinished, or still to come that makes him want to read the next installment, even if it’ll be a year or more before it appears. This incompleteness can appear in the form of just a word, a phrase, or a sentence, or even in something left not said or not done. Third, there’s the series in which the protagonist and some of his or her associated secondary characters continue from book to book, but...Read More
...hat work, or does not do it well. Photo by Marco Michelini, via FreeImages.com Edgerton says those first pages need to do four things: Introduce the protagonist and their normal world. Contain the “inciting incident” that throws the protagonist out of that normal world. Contain the “surface problem,” the problem they initially think they have to solve.

By the way, if she does not learn the first time, that’s fine. That’ll get her into more trouble. But eventually she needs to learn… or end up dead or a complet...Read More
