Hey, maybe you could do what my Writing Short Fiction teacher does and get other people to "cruelly edit" your stuff if you're thinking that it needs it.
I'm mostly unqualified to even post in this thread, but how about a nice non sequitur or at least a strange last-minute twist?
Like so, maybe. "Upon seeing the snail, the one with the bomb shouted and fell backwards and into the river, which exploded.
'D***, that was my favorite river,' the snail complained." ...Hey, we were told to write something involving a snail, a Methodist church, and a bomb (there was an evacuation drill that day). It's likely to end strangely. What's a talking snail between friends? It's the bomb, that's what! *shot*
...Ahem. Anyway, I'd say to find an honest editor. Again, hardly qualified, but there's my submission to you. Have a thing.

eek
Just wow. Normally, I try to include a joke of some sort in most things I submit (yes, I'm including homework and term papers here, too redface ) that manages to tie things together, but also make an attempt at lightening the mood and making things less boring. neutral A bit on the corny side? Absolutely. sweatdrop Effective? From what I've heard, you bet'cha. smile But that idea... A twist completely from left field... Thanks for the advice!!! blaugh I'll give that a shot! 3nodding
