Bore The Reader

"It is a cardinal sin to bore the reader."

- Larry Niven

Whether it is the whisper of a nudge, shout of a shove, or scream of a scratch, published authors can always hear the sound of their success or failure. Unfortunately, it can happen after they have already lost their readers, and to get them back requires something like forgiving a cardinal sin. It takes a miracle. It takes a savior - just don't go there.
