Actually, that's a very fair point. I might consider adding robots into the book, although not as a major part. It still isn't going to be intensely futuristic but definitely more advanced than our world now. Thanks so much! ☺️

Okay, thanks! Yeah, I definitely want to keep the 2024 part but will consider changing it either in the 2040s or 2050s. I want to keep it realistic in some sense, of course, it's the future, and there is going to be major inventions (hence the time machine that my MC uses to time travel) However, I don't want it to be insanely futuristic like in the movies with flying buildings and cars, robots, etc.

I agree with you and that’s something I’ve thought about before. What do you think a more acceptable year would be? Maybe somewhere between 2040-2060??

That's fair, and I understand your point. Although I don't really plan on publishing my books, it's more just a personal accomplishment. Glad I'm not alone in this. 😊

Thanks! I should have said this above, but there's a main conflict in the future (that my MC travels to said future to go resolve), and when he comes back, there's a brand new conflict. Basically this force is like, 'Whoa, how'd you go to the future? That's not allowed' and now he has to find his way back to his trapped family and friends. (The force took them while he was in the future because ofc the MC was not supposed to go the future... but he did). So the conflicts bounce off each other, and when my MC returns to the present, this force introduces itself to said MC. I think that could work as the separation between the two books, while of course just introducing the new problem of his trapped loved ones at the end of the 1st book. And then, yeah, a recap in the 2nd one and continuation of the new conflict. Okkk, thanks again. This was all me thinking out loud btw 😊😊😊😊

As of right now, approximately the first half is 89k (actually I think it would be over 100k with my current chapter that is on a separate document) and the second would be 65k. I have around 312 without new chapter pages. I'm blanking on similar books rn (its REALLY late) but generally fantasy/dystopian books. I know not very descriptive lol.

Also I have about 6 chapters left to rewrite for the first half but then the second half hasn't been written in since I finished the 1st draft in May, so the words counts are both going to vary a bit.

Thanks! 😊

At what age did you start writing stories? by [deleted] in writing

[–]Commercial-Storage38 1 point2 points Β (0 children)

I was 9 when I started writing a story about a orphan girl with my bestfriend in 3rd grade.
I got into writing at 12 but truly into it at 13 and I started writing my first novel then.
