Yesterday an agent told me she liked my concept, but not my narrative voice. So I looked at the first few pages of my first chapter, and, guess what? I don’t like it either. But it’s only the first three pages that read that way. The rest is just dandy. Needless to say (but I’m saying it anyway. Doesn’t everybody?), nobody reads any further if she doesn’t like the first three. Shoot me now.
Bang!
