If you critique every sentence that makes it to the page, you can't make any progress in moving the story forward. Of course, good writing is what makes books sell, but you can't have a novel without a plot line. You can always fix the writing later - it's called editing!(less)

message 1: by Donna

Donna Thank you K.V. for accepting my friendship request on Goodreads. You must have a busy life as a doctor and writing books too. I, myself, am a retired nurse. I worked for over 20 years working with geriatric patients. I found this profession very rewarding. Thanks again for the friendship and have a Happy Thanksgiving.
