About Chapter 3
Some revisions are needed
This is the part of story telling that is so much fun. Revisions. Though I plan on getting the draft done before coming back to make these changes, it’s time to think about them. As I write, the idea might manifest itself before I’m finished with the draft, in which case I will go back. But I leave myself a note in the title of the chapter so I know to address the issue.
In the case of chapter 3 It is very briefly mentioned that there were no other boys Ala’s age. A reader might wonder why. So do I! It sounds like good story fodder to me so somewhere I plan on elaborating on this in this chapter, or one prior. So this is what my chapter heading looks like right now in my draft:
Chapter 3 Ala - Why are there not many boys his age? Did something happen the year he was born?
As I write and reread, I’ll be leaving these sorts of notes to go back to. If you have any questions like this concerning what I’ve posted, I’d love your input.
I’m currently on chapter 8. You can read more this Friday
Don’t forget the campaigns currently running on Backerkit and about to launch on Kickstarter. Yes I do sell books online at retailers, but the response is so much better on a platform where I can talk to my readers and have a relationship with them. Thank you for those of you who support these campaigns. You have been a boost to my writing and I’m really exciting about this new story.
I also thank you to those who open, read, like, and comment on my SubStack posts. Readers make the journey worthwhile.
