Anyone edit your story with the hopes of streamlining things and although you delete lots of stuff and rewrite a few things it turns out longer instead of shorter?
Was reading a novel on RR and the author said to write a comment about what you didn't like before downvoting the fiction. I wrote "Your second chapter has a scene where a heroine says today is the best day . . . then zombies attack"
Author replies it is supposed to be confusing and uncanny.
