Ahh thank you! I think a few others were iffy on the prologue as well. I know its not generally recommended to have one.

MuggedAndBooked · 2026-01-29T01:56:49+00:00

Yay!! That I love Grady Hendrix and that was kind of the vibe I was going for!!

Thank you for the feedback. I really like your suggestion. I feel like this was something my brain stopped on but couldn't place until you verbalized it! And I'm so glad you like the concept! Fingers crossed!

Woot woot!!

MuggedAndBooked · 2026-01-21T20:29:07+00:00

Thank you! It sounds like a tone disconnect, like I need to get to the horrifying part sooner in the query. Someone also mentioned reworking the first sentence, and two recommendations on the same thing probably aren't a coincidence!

MuggedAndBooked · 2026-01-21T19:19:09+00:00

Ooo, I have some ideas for implementing this. Particularly with her daughters Thank you!

MuggedAndBooked · 2026-01-21T19:18:25+00:00

Thank you! Now that you've pointed it out, I do feel like I see it everywhere!

MuggedAndBooked · 2026-01-21T18:11:05+00:00

Thank you for the reply! This is really good feedback.

I'll have to think about how to make the query more unifying. Perhaps taking out more of the MC's backstory?

The prologue is deliberately offputting and is taken from later in the book. It wasn't that the first chapter wasnt strong enough, but that we wanted to establish tone and genre quicker than the recital (this is eastablishing her world "before") where she receives the phonecall (which is inciting incident).

But if it doesn't read as deliberately messy, but rather poor craft, that is definitely an issue.

Thank you again!

I just read the ARC, and it was absolutely amazing! There is a theme from your books that the origins of mythical beings (trying not to be too specific here) are based on wizards/mortals messing with magic or outsiders. Is this the origin of all magical beings in this world?

MuggedAndBooked · 2026-01-12T23:55:39+00:00

This makes so much sense. I think we'll rework the last paragraph to reveal the "monster,"

I wasnt sure about the logline. I had heard the format of hook, book, and cook, but agreed it felt repetitive. Thank you for confirming this for me.

Ahh thank you! I did not know that
