RE: A Chapter from my Novel in Progress / Impressions and advice welcomed!!

in #fiction7 years ago

I enjoyed the tone and flavour of your words.

That said I do not feel that I am in any position to offer solid advice being as I am relatively new to writing myself ~ sorry.

:)

I am writing my first book too which is a non fiction tale entitled 'Mama, Mama Are You There?' ~ the biggest problem I have is remembering what I have already written! Wonder if you can relate?

Not looking forward to the edit at all!

Your post has inspired me to air the prologue to my book ~ thanks.

I would welcome your thoughts: https://steemit.com/writing/@ldacey-laforge/prologue-from-my-book-mama-mama-are-you-there-thoughts-guidance-welcome

I wish you well finishing this book and hope your day is perky!

Thank you! I'm so glad I inspired you to put yours out there - it's been phenomenal to get so much feedback I hope you receive the same :) I'll definitely check it out :)

I can totally relate to the remembering issue! I'd lose my head if it wasn't screwed on so trying to keep this book straight has been a struggle in itself, LOL. Honestly, I've been working on this book for well over a year and with so much back story I've started keeping spreadsheet time lines, folders for each character, relationship diagrams, plus a whole doc with my "future" slang, words, devices etc. I call it Fictional Realities lol
Lists, spreadsheets, Pinterest boards, binders and google.docs are my best friends.
thanks for your wonderful comment and good luck to you as well with 'Mama, Mama Are You There?' ...sounds eerily like my childhood lol :) Namaste
