Megan Curd replied to Megan Curd's discussion Bridger in the group Query Kick-Around"Thanks for all the suggestions! I really appreciate it! :)"
Anne Severn Williamson replied to Megan Curd's discussion Bridger in the group Query Kick-Around"Wonderful concept Megan! Bridger is a strong title. The letter reads well. I would tighten up the second paragraph. The comments by Patricia seem right on track. Perhaps the last phrase "I plan to market it..." could be combined with the…"
Melissa Shaw-Smith replied to Megan Curd's discussion Guardian Chronicles: The Calling in the group First Pages (Crit Group)"Hi Megan:
Jumping on the critique bandwagon a bit late here, but hopefully of some use.
I found your first five a nice smooth read--good combination of action and exposition--enough to make sense of what is going on. The premise is intriguing and…"
Laura Robinett replied to Megan Curd's discussion Guardian Chronicles: The Calling in the group First Pages (Crit Group)"I'm a pretty harsh critic when it comes to the first few pages of a book I'm reading and not sure if I'm going to like it. I nearly didn't read The Hunger Games and it turned out to be one of my favorite books.
With all that…"
Megan Curd replied to Celise Downs's discussion Editing/Revising - When do you stop?"I actually just blogged on this last night! Check it out: http://bit.ly/bCZIGj
Personally, I feel like I knew it was "finished" when I was only changing comma placement, or moving words into a different order for the sake of changing…"

- Hey Megan! Sure am enjoying YALitChat! What a great community of cool folks! Working on some poetry called "Lyrics of a Homestead Life" and chapter vii of The Snow Feast from the Ghost Horse Hollow series. Just sent out my first formal query to an agent in San Diego. Crossing fingers! Have a splendid day!

Tyson Malo said… - Hey Megan, Hmmm, not sure. I suppose I am working on something in the way of a novel that could be appreciated by some young adults, but mainly geared towards an older audience. I have tried to figure out what "YA" really means, and it seems to me that an audience is best defined by interest and maturity rather than age - that make sense? My main interest in the site here was you. I am a terribly undisciplined writer and I was impressed at how you are getting things done. I figure there are probably plenty of folks here that I can learn from. The thing now is finding/making time. Peace! And come back to visit us here in Coch sometime soon :o)
