An update! The past few months have been super busy, so I haven't made much progress. Instead, I've been really honing in the first few chapters until I am satisfied, with the amazing help of a group on Discord which is just writers and authors! There is now a new version (linked in the original post) and I would love the feedback compared to the original! |

You're doing a great job and it is awesome that you found a community of authors & writers to discuss with! My main advice is to just keep writing. The finished books you see on a shelf had a first draft that was nowhere near the final product - speaking from experience. ;) Don't stress too much about getting things right. As long as you have the bones of the story in place, you are good. First drafts are always messy, a little crazy, and very flawed. But getting to the end lets you see your project in whole - the full course of character arcs, story lines, themes, etc. The things that need fixing, the bumps in the flow, the scenes that need rewritten, will jump out at you on the read-through. |

For sure! Personally, I think if I can tweak the first few chapters to be good, then the rest of it will follow so I have a base to go by. Thank you! I'll definitely follow that advice! (EDIT: Side account) |
