      5. Add more emotion.
      6. Add more dialogue.
      7. Add more narrative.
      8. Use it as a coaster for your coffee , or beer if you drink it .

      10. Go to a variety of publishers to read their submission guidelines.
      11. Think a bit more about submitting.
      12. Send it to your CP so she can tell you it's brilliant

      The purpose of the meme is to get to know everyone who participates a little bit better every Thursday. Visiting fellow Thirteeners is encouraged! If you participate, leave the link to your Thirteen in others comments. It’s easy, and fun! Be sure to update your Thirteen with links that are left for you, as well! I will link to everyone who participates and leaves a link to their 13 things. Trackbacks, pings, comment links accepted!
