In reply to Beth M.

Oh– that’s such a good question. For example, one story was about a dragon pirate captain who finds her treasure in books. In the plot, one of the problems was that she accidentally sets the books on fire with her breath. Rena said it was too close to book burning. Of course, I don’t want any reference to that and didn’t realize how it could be perceived. Whoops! Also, she said it had too many things going on, and I needed to simplify it. It’s now on the shelf until I figure out how I want to rewrite it.
