    Great video. I use pro writing aid after I have revised the chapter numerous times. I used on of their suggestions. It ended up totally changing the idea of the scene. However I did rewrite the sentences a few times to bring it up a level

    Launch Team - Tell me more about it? I was running myself into the ground for months and months and then I kinda fell apart for another two weeks. BUT - I dropped a lot of stuff from my schedule. I am JUST starting to read again - I had no time or brain power to do it. Anyway - I'd love to be a part of the Launch Team!

    It feels like you're giving too much away in the hooks.... Maybe try something more like these? ~ In a world where there is little hope of escaping from the shadows, or the secrets that hold you there, Lillianne, the young leader of The Agency's "Team of Eight", must work alongside an enigmatic ally to protect the innocents being dragged into her world. She struggles for balance between the mission restricted by red tape, the people she loves, and a budding romance she's afraid to fully trust. Can she remain the same in the relentless fight for justice, or will passion and disillusion put everything she thought she wanted at risk? ~As a member of the "Team of Eight", David often faced risk from espionage and physical danger. He wasn't prepared, however, for the mental manipulation of a madman with designs on crushing his spirit so that he could add David to his army of 'Perfect Soldiers'. Devastated by a betrayal that ended with his lovers blood on his hands, he keeps pushing away the people closest to him. He wants little to do with the new woman that has entered his life, but she may just be the key to helping him regain his freedom, and his heart.

    I think almost everyone I know struggles with book marketing. I like the opening to the first hook, up to 'with a potential enemy', and the 2nd half of the second hook, starting with 'and betrayal is a heartbeat away'. Also be very careful with word usage in your blurb/marketing. Fraught isn't really a 'younger' market word and it could turn away the twenty-something to (perhaps) mid-thirty-something readers.
