Just couldn’t get into it. I’m fascinated by the topic, but this treatment was WAY too inside-baseball.

Delightful! Best tip for me: make two lists, one of things you hate in novels, the other of things you love. Keep them handy for reference, throw in stuff you like, avoid stuff you hate. 🙂 Harder than you’d think! Definitely a good kickstart for NaNoWriMo.
