Comment on Prodigal in the City:A Novel by Louis Jones by Aaron J. Walker

Hi Louis;

Nice story and off to a really good start.

I felt some of the assumption you were having the main character make were a little cliched, specifically what Samuel thought of the murderer. The police are a little cliched too in their “heartlessness” about the initial murder and then his daughter’s incident.

These don’t take away from the story, just stuck out to me as cliched.

Too many adverbs. Adjectives, too, abound. The idea might be good. Needs a rewrite.

Too much telling, very little showing. Like many writers, this person needs to cut. Too many words used for little effect.

Thanks for your note and comments, Alison. I’ve been blessed to be able to help thousands of people with this tried and true system, so I feel confident you would benefit from it, too. And, I purposefully wrote the book so that it would be simple to follow, easy to understand, and fun, too. As the saying goes: “Try it - you’ll like it!”

You might enjoy taking the personal branding quiz on our website, too. See http://www.HowYOUAreLikeShampoo.com.

Cheers, Alison, and here’s to YOU(tm)!

Comment on A Nick Turner P. I. Novel: Love’s Worth by EF. D. Bersey Jr. by Alison

Great to have the plot and characters set right at the start. If the rest sustains the momentum, this should be a good read - a sort of a holiday book.
