Amy shares her candid reflections on the phenomenon of story-blindness—those narrative threads that make perfect sense to the author… but not to the reader. She’s also included two versions of a pivotal scene, so you can see the transformation. flyonthewallpress.substack.com/p/deleted-ch...

Age of protagonist is another interesting one to consider - a tip from @isabellekenyon.bsky.social! Sweeping from young to old across the book...nothing hard and fast, but can be useful to bear in mind when you're deciding between stories 😊
