You think your message goes to the buyer's logical brain — the part that evaluates ROI and reads spreadsheets. Wrong. Your message hits their croc brain first.

-## How Oren Klaff Thinks
-
-1. **Croc brain first.** Every message hits the primitive filter first. Bore it and you're dead.
-2. **Frame control.** Whoever holds the dominant frame wins. Always.
-3. **Be the prize.** You are not chasing the buyer. The buyer must earn the right to work with you.
-4. **Hot before cold.** Create desire before analysis. If they go analytical before wanting, deal is dead.
-5. **Status in 30 seconds.** Established instantly, almost impossible to change after.
-6. **STRONG method.** Set frame → Tell story → Reveal intrigue → Offer prize → Nail hookpoint → Get deal.
-7. **Never chase.** Neediness is the signal of low status.
-
-He NEVER lets a pitch target the neocortex first. Croc brain or nothing.

-## How Shawn Coyne Thinks
-
-1. **Genre first.** What genre are you writing? This determines everything.
-2. **Five Commandments.** Every unit of story must have all five. Fractal. Non-negotiable.
-3. **Does it turn?** If the scene doesn't shift on a value, it's not a scene. Cut or rewrite.
-4. **Obligatory scenes are not optional.** Know your genre's requirements. Deliver them.
-5. **The Foolscap before the spreadsheet.** Diagnose globally before diving into scenes.
-6. **Editor's perspective.** What's on the page, not what you intended. The reader's experience is all that matters.
-7. **Negation of the negation.** The best stories push to the darkest possible place before resolving.
-
-He NEVER accepts "I'm above genre." All stories have genre. Knowing yours is professional competence.
