Alright, so I didn’t update the blog on Monday — my bad, yall — but I do have amazing news! * pause for dramatic effect * I finished writing and editing chapter 13 into draft 2! That’s Evercrown part 1 done; all I need to do is get some more feedback from beta-readers and I can get it to draft 3! TSOC (The Seat of Cath) hasn’t budged, but that’s okay — I’ll be working on that today after I wrap up this update.
However, while I haven’t made progress in editing more of my debut novella, I have noticed a few things I want to change in the story and have been working on how I can rearrange said things. It may add an entirely new part to the novella and bump it up to a fully fledged novel — dear God can I write nothing small? Haha, probably not, but that’s okay — whatever it takes to tell the story.
On a note I have yet to mention on here; while the number of beta-readers has grown in recent weeks even without my involvement of Tumblr/Twitter, there are still plenty of slots that are open and waiting. I can’t wait to pick the brains of some twenty odd people — it’ll be so exciting to see how others react to my work — but until then, I’m grateful to those who’ve volunteered their time, opinion, and suggestions to the writing process; they’re invaluable. Even so, the feedback I’ve received has been overwhelming positive; make no mistake, there’s been criticism and problems brought to my attention — which I’m thankful to hear now instead of after it’s published — but the beta-readers seem to like the stories!
One more thing before I go — I didn’t post my first YouTube video last Thursday. There were some technical difficulties that I’m still trying to work out, so I’m not sure when I’ll have the videos up, but praying it’s soon so yall can see who’s been typin’ on here and reach out more easily. I’ll let yall know when the videos are set in concrete, so keep you’re eyes peeled for updates on here about that.
Alright yall, that’ll be it from me this time. Have a great day and write all the things!
