How can a world rely on something that no one knows about? NO, sorry.Victoria Dixonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08978050059674596756noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3615675676021392217.post-84731080001250121122019-10-02T16:06:33.813-04:002019-10-02T16:06:33.813-04:00NO

Even though there are conflicts, there's not quite enough to let me know the character enough to get me invested in her story.

I thought the blood magic was going to play a bigger part (I'm sure it does in the story). I envisioned the prince forcing her into blood debt, like using her blood for magic. Anyway, just had a different idea of where the story was going.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07926235665296224921noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3615675676021392217.post-88567431977302431842019-10-01T20:03:55.617-04:002019-10-01T20:03:55.617-04:00YES.

For the pitch, I ...YES. Cool and exciting opening!<br /><br />For the pitch, I think you could be more specific: what does "Conflicting forces" mean? And how is the main character in any position to fight for power if her household is dead?
