F2S 53

I locked eyes with my fellow job candidate, trying not to smile at his surprise. "Yes, I'm serious. Turn around."

    Hooking and I'd read on.

    However, I do feel that "trying not to smile at his surprise" is very telly and meh. I'd like to see this bit polished or removed.

    I'd remove "at his surprise", or change the whole phrase to "trying to surpress a smile" or something. But, really, I like it. Good job!

    Uhm...maybe it's just me, but I have no idea what's going on.

    Who is saying turn around? The MC or his/her fellow job candidate?

    Why would you tell a fellow job candidate to turn around?

    I'm confused. Not hooked.

    I’d bite. At least for the next page and then decide again from there.

    Okay, Dusty Muffin, if you insist. :)

    On my blog, there's a link on the right-hand side to "Go Small or Go Home". The first chapter of the book can be found at that link, and I'd love feedback!

    And I'm sorry I lost you, fairchild, and thanks for the comments from several others on polishing suggestions.
