Subject: [bksvol-discuss] reasons for rejecting a book?
Hey Guys,
Can someone tell me what are the legitimate reasons for rejecting a book? I
have the book that I have been proofreading for some time and I am starting to
see that some of the sentences are not continuous. Here is an example:
"...
streamers through the low, heady atmosphere. These sounds, of life in
its infancy, were there as John Verlaine was woken by the incessant
shrilling of the phone; and such a call at that time in the morning
meant, more often than not, that someone somewhere was dead. [**here is where
one of the sentences is not making sense]
New Orleans Police Department for eleven years, somewhere in
amongst that three and a half years in Vice, the last two years in Homicide;
single, mentally sound but emotionally unstable; most often tired,
less often smiling."
***The book is not "flowing" so what should I do? This is early in the book
and I am just starting to figure out why it has been taking me a while to
finish. I just thought that this was just a book that didn't peek my interest
but I see now that is not the case.
Please advise. Thanks
Netta
