When you mentioned that the agent wanted you to make the setting a character I remembered that Donald Maass covered that in chapter 4 of his book, Writing the Breakout Novel. If you don't have a copy, head for the library, it is really good. I quickly grabbed my copy. Quote:<br />How does your setting make people feel? That is the key, not how a place looks but its psychological effect on the characters in your novel.<br />He goes on to explain and it's quite insightful.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8541149988247105465.post-87952430371121907882010-01-19T11:00:18.010-08:002010-01-19T11:00:18.010-08:00Sacrifices?
