huge intro to sit through when there is so much good material to get through today. Re cliff hanger, I had one in the first two book of my trilogy, but then added a few pages of the next book as a sneak preview. Did that defeat the purpose of the cliff hanger?
Thank you for your presentation. Congrats on selling 100 copies in a week? The Art Of Cunning.
You need to read Suzanne Collin’s series, Gregor the Overlander. I LOVE that series!! 🙂
