Evaluation of Whisper

Today I got my evaluation of Whisper back!
Here's what the Lisa, the lady who read it, had to say:

What you have submitted for publication involves a wonderfully planned out plot with excellent characterization.  This story was a great read that kept my attention from the first page.  You have a terrific writing style. I can tell that you have done much planning and preparation in crafting your work – especially the way you have thought out the characters and movement that happens in the story.  This is not an easy feat. I often found myself wondering if this story were based on real people and/or events.  Your prose is very nicely written with details that capture the reader and since we write best about what we know, I had to wonder if this were loosely based on true events. I found myself really connected with your characters and what was going on.  It is easy to have too much going on too soon – not in your case.  Your plot is slow and methodical and you use your dialogue to move the plot along.   Your characters are lifelike and I love it when I leave a story feeling like I know them.  Characterization is one of the most important elements of any successful story.  You did not rush or force anything.  You have crafted a quality piece of writing.
 
Wow! I have to admit that I was nervous about what they would have to say, but I was floored when I saw the email.
Once again, I want to thank all of you who have commented or shown your support of this project in anyway.
Next week I will be putting up the author's note I am including at the end of the book so stay posted!

I am not at all surprised, after reading your first 2 books and the hints that you've shared about Whisper. I'm so very excited to read the final book. Your writings are spiritually inspiring, very exciting and every word of the above evaluation I would have to agree with on the basis of your other writings and the excitement I felt reading about Whisper. When you are doing God's work He sends the Spirit to assist you. XOXOX Aunt Cathy
