It's the one thing that I hate the most about #socialMedia interactions: false interest as someone tries to sell me something. I had that the other day. I get it all the time. It reeks of a scam & has made me unwilling to work with strangers.

Private Message Marketing Reeks of Scams
The “cold calling” marketing tactic that uses direct messenging only makes you look like a scammer, because it is often laced with false interest.

If you have a well-written story, readers will overlook the odd typo & grammatical error. BUT it doesn't matter how good your grammar is if you have a badly constructed story with gaping plot holes and character issues. Story trumps grammar. #WriteSky #WritingCommunity #MondayBlogs
How important really is grammar?
You could have the best grammar in the world, but if your story is lacking when it comes to plot or character, then your reader will get bored.

Is your Novel Plot or Character Driven? When I was querying agents and publishers, I found this distinction incredibly helpful, if only because deciding what to highlight in a query letter can feel impossible. Here's how to tell: lindaksienkiewicz.com/queries-is-y... #writersky #mondayblogs

Knowing whether your novel is plot or character driven can help determine what kind of query letter to write to agents.
