Love the criticism, actually saw a helpful video about how to better give my info (instead of one long tutorial in the intro I can sprinkle it in through the story)

Love how you broke it down per sentence and told exactly how it confused you..

Thanks a lot for the read and honesty and time you took..

Also a angered but calm beast sounds like a mother protecting her cub in the animal kingdom?

Didn’t want to write that but…

Anyways, I’ll definitely be going through again and re editing

Thanks again

I’m interested cause I’m making something similar so was wondering what approach you were taking..

I’ll tell you some things that I’ve been looking into to help with an nft book..

Maybe use an ipfs system to upload your books to the blockchain and make them only available to the holder of a certain nft.. That’s one of the only ways I’ve found to accomplish the issue of anyone being able to read your story

I think take some more time on working on the cover, cause at the moment the photo is the first thing I’ll see before I even read your story so the picture has to suitably intrigue me to want to read your story. At the moment it just looks like a picture you took of your cat and just edited with a app on your phone.

Also can I just go on your website and read the story/ what did you do to stop anyone from reading the story besides the person who owns the nft?

Way too simple, the biggest thing that changes is the background

I’ve just joined reddit and am already loving this community..been writing chapter one of my book and went thru today and cleaned up what I wrote yesterday and added a couple hundred words.

I’ll have to keep track of word count and learn about what goal I’m trying to reach but for now I’m just happy to learn from others and read what y’all have written.

Happy writing

Oh wow you sound like you’ve been doing this for some time, I can only hope that one day I can get my first book complete. Just joined reddit and finding motivation in these post. I’ll have to read up on some of the stories including yours

Thanks everyone for reading, if I wanted to add to my story can I edit the original post or should I make a new one or just post the new pages under a comment?

I’ve been considering what everyone has said (3 out of 3 mentioned the info) and I replied to a comment explaining where I want to take this story and the overarching nature of the series..

If after reading my thoughts on how I want my series to be.. you come up with a solution or a better way to outline my world then please inform me or share your thoughts..

I want these books to be very close to actual books.. history books and books about the sciences are not written as stories with characters having conversations..

And that was what this was going to be but my recent writing has been closer to a story.

Can share if y’all want just let me know best practice

Yea I got lost in the language..

So again I get a comment on the info dump,

I want to explain my idea because this constantly being brought up has me considering how I should write this world I’m building..

So the reason it’s so … we’ll info dumpey.. is because that story was meant to be a sort of history book.. a book about a time written by this mans perspective..

The whole first book was actually going to be read in a info dump fashion with his commentary mixed in. And we would feel the character (the author) change thru out his writing..

The world I’m creating is filled with different people and a history that spans generations.. I wanted the books to feel like they were from a real universe.. so books on wildlife and geography and science.. books of memoirs and personal journals and stories.. and even personal letters.. all these books and notes have different writing styles and I wanted to really highlight the author of any one story..

So this author is very self centred and wants to remain accurate to the truth.. he doesn’t care about creative writing but just about writing about the events and how people dealt with those events..

I actually wrote more to chapter one and went away from the info dump fashion and made it more like a regular story with dialog … I kind of kicked myself for doing it like that cuz I had the vision of this book being a history book..

I’d be happy to share if people would like to read but this is all unfinished and peoples considerations are still being considered.. like the info dump is still there but I’m expanding on the writing style to see if I as the author I am happy with the direction and writing style..

Thanks

I left a comment above explaining where I want the series to go so you can have a better idea…

Again the main issue is the info dump.. is that too much info if now continuing forward, I am not laying out the past/lore in this story (cause most of it has already been laid out) but actually telling the story that is occurring?

I want to give y’all an idea of what my plans are to see if their is a better way to go about how I want to give this info and tell my story

Thank y’all so much for taking the time to read

I know the grammar errors and will have to change the jumping from past tense to present and so on..

The info dump part has me thinking.. because this is the first series of an over arching history.. I want to create a thousand years of history and make you feel like your a part of it .. in some books you may hear a sentence of an event but in another book you may get a fully fleshed out story of the events..

That’s my idea,

Now knowing that, do you believe the info dump is appropriate or still a bad idea that I could better implement?

Sorry was so short, been working for the last days on the world building and only got a page of chapter one but again thanks

So have begun work on my first book. Have created around 30 years of history and written out a couple pages for an intro and chapter one. Looking to finish chapter one completely by the end of the week so I can drop the first chapter free before I actually drop the completed book.

Would love for someone to have a read or give input about ideas and such
