For instance, one complaint I was surprised to get was someone who wanted to know why I didn't name my protagonist when the book I read recommended describing what kind of person they are (for example, "a wizard PI" instead of "Harry Dresden").<br /><br />Still, I'll definitely revise my logline and try to add in the things I should've had in it from the start.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01887508868492925232noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3615675676021392217.post-76777566320819968012014-10-22T16:53:27.369-04:002014-10-22T16:53:27.369-04:00Thanks, Holly!
