I think i just figured out what's wrong with the start of chapter 1. The first bit of action doesn't come until 350 words in. It's all very abstract description up until then. I think that's why the people who have read it have had trouble placing themselves in the setting and sympathising with Zachery. Hmmm. I'm glad I realised this.
My query letter is going through draft after draft. It's just not engaging enough. It's been described as boring, and that's definitely not what I want.
In completely other news... Actually, this news should get it's own post.
