Good technique.<br />
<br />
Also try The Aging Process. Put away the writing in a dark place, such as a drawer. Let the writing age for a while. Then let it out into the light. Has the writing improved or does it stink'eth? The aging process should reveal such.

I once did the opening of a bad hard-boiled historical called STONE, PI:<br />
<br />
"Being a PI in 2010BC really sucked. Of course, we didn't call it 2010BC - we called it The Year The Woolly Mammoth Ate My Brother. Things were slow at Stone investigations. That's me - Stone - so called because when I was born, a Stone was the first thing I grasped. It coulda been worse. My brother, Cowpat, never had any luck – poor bastard. As I was saying, the PI game in prehistoric Britain was as slow as a Diplodocus…

As I was saying, the PI game in prehistoric Britain was as slow as a Diplodocus with a limp. I was beginning to think I'd gone into the wrong job. I should have listened to my father and gone into the family Interior Cave Design business.<br />
<br />
Instead, I was stuck tracing missing pet Stegosauri and tailing errant husbands. I sighed, and longed for the day when someone would invent fire so that I could deal with a nice juicy arson case. I reached into my drawer and pulled out the bowl of Elderflower Juice I kept there - man, that stuff has a kick. Just then the door opened and in walked a vision of loveliness. She sashayed into my office, her buttocks looking like a pair of baby brontosauri fighting in a sack."<br />

I also have the equivalent for cosy, historical police procedural, cat detective and futuristic but I won't bore you with those :o) "The Corpse Wore Beige"
