Your first page is your first impression on your reader (or a literary agent).

And you might be inadvertently turning them off.

Here are the 7 biggest first-page mistakes I've seen in 10+ years as a book editor — and exactly how to avoid or fix them. 👇

Had a sizeable turnout in Chico, California for today's No Kings March. Lots of community support and nobody yelling at us or flipping us off (somewhat to my surprise). #defendersofdemocracy

[Scott Wolf ‐‐ scottwolfwriter.bsky.social @ScottWolfWriter]

@MikkiDWrites Excited for you! Congratulations!

[Scott Wolf ‐‐ scottwolfwriter.bsky.social @ScottWolfWriter]

Submit early. Technical difficulties at the last minute are no fun.

[Mindy Alyse Weiss @MindyAlyseWeiss]

Have you entered the #PBParty contest yet? I love how people join from around the world. Where do you live and what genre did you submit? What else do you write or illustrate?

You have until 8 pm Eastern to enter. Good luck. :)

Had an opportunity to read and review
@JLockettAuthor1 's new #kidlit book, MY LIFE AS AN ASTHMANAUT, coming out on 4/14. It's an important read for children coping with asthma, but also for friends and classmates wanting to offer support. #Disability

@FreelanceOwl 🤣
I do this, usually with at least 4 books: 2 #kidlit books (1 physical, 1 audio) and 2 adult novels or nonfiction (again, 1 physical, 1 audio).
