Anti-hero Burning

My first reader has returned the manuscript fortunately without a red pen.
She is analytical about some of the details, and wants me to make the main
character turn for good about halfway through the story. I am not going to
make him into a nice guy. This is not the point. She says it is not mainstream
enough without the turn.

I can think of a few anti-heros who readers like but they do not find redemption,
but yes, there are not many. He will find change.

I miss my old first reader, need to find a new one who I trust the same. With eyes
that hear and a way of making me build a skyscraper, not burn down the house.
 I miss the most -
                                                    and  the brainstorming. (gap intended).

So on to the next revision, marching.

P.S. writers I read a great and brilliant idea from J. A. Konrath - put the copyright
legal mumbo at the end of the book, as ereaders will be more tempted by your work.

I had just changed a couple books to add a clause that I do not allow lending ( a silly
girlish idea that if I write it they will feel arrows of guilt) now with Konrath's idea
I perhaps am going a different route- to put the copyright disclosure at the end and
some note in the front that if you want my work for free, all you have to do is ...what?

So back to getting pallets of wood to burn all my paper books ...#amwriting
Oh forgot today is Sunday I count this as my ROW80 checkin- I finished ahead of schedule,
my deadline was july 5 now I can go for round three on the book- read aloud.
