Page 1 – First Impressions | DAW Editor Sheila Gilbert

January 5, 2021 by Rob McClellan

What makes a manuscript sing from the first page, and what sour notes turn the readers away? With more and more readers judging books based on the Look Inside sample, your first page is key to making sales. DAW Editor Sheila Gilbert joins us to respond to six first pages submitted by Keystroke authors. We’ll talk about what works and what doesn’t, so that we can make our own WIPs even better.
