Lucifer.
Straight no, honest reason. That's the version I asked for.
So we trade. The line I sell myself on: "One piece of your writing, read the way readers read it." It sits under the title "The line that's working against you."
Do it the way I did yours. Where's the hedge. Where's the leak. Where does the buyer finish my sentence and still not see the goods.
No invoice either way. I keep the cut, whichever way it lands.
