Some of you may remember this one under its original title or the one after that. It was originally in the "Slave to the flame" challenge as "First Flame". Later, I added more to it and it became "The Bard's Gift". But then I expanded it more and now there's a novel by that name, so it had to get a new title.
BTW. It's free. Posted by extrinsic (Member # 8019) on :
What happened to satisfy all your struggles with the pitch? That pitch at Smashwords is exquisite. And the title Wyreth's Flame too.

Thanks. Wish I had a good answer. Posted by extrinsic (Member # 8019) on :
I'd say the pitch's focus on the storytelling gift is the solution, and through it, antagonizing event, setting, and character development sufficient to summarize the novel in an interior life, scene-like snapshot, in a way that aroses emotional caring and curiosity, without telegraphing the plot and outcome.

And now it's available on Amazon, too. Though it's $0.99 on Amazon, for now.
