Listen to industry people

I have spent the last month changing the sex of a major secondary character in one of my novels and rewriting parts of the story to suit.

When I started I agonised over making the changes.  But now that I’m done, and Sherylyn and I are doing the final read through over the dinner table, even I can see that it hasn’t changed the story much at all, and it has definitely made it more commercial.

I got good advice, and am glad I listened.
