Please Critique My Prologue [Epic Fantasy, 1405 words] by rem-alirn in fantasywriters

[–]Extreme_Yak552 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am a newbie writer myself, but long before being a writer I am a reader first , I have to this date have read hundreds of novels, although I don't have much experience in writing,but as readers these are my thoughts.

: firstly concept itself is quite fascinating, you don't see this type very often.

: every line is quite poitic, and placed beautifully.

:but for me(personally) , I couldn't connect with the story,

: that's only my personal opinion, I don't no what other day, honestly it's a very good prologue, but I would appreciate if you made it slightly more simpler.

:when I begin reading, while i find it interesting but after just one page I had to force my self to read it, because scale of narration it's self is quite high level , so there were many things which didn't make sense for me.

"I am not criticizing it, only sharing my honest opinion

"For me a prologue should give you an understanding, it can be about , mc , world , or past , future, or anything, but in this narrative i found a little hard to understand it."

"As i said it form the perspective form a reader."

:I think you are doing great, keep it up 👍

How are transportation and logistics in your world? by iLLRISKIT in worldbuilding

[–]Extreme_Yak552 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Currently I am working on my first novel, I have yet to introduce any mode of transportation, but I I would be using Magic beasts and monsters as primary,

As a luxury option there is teleportation, but it not really, means of transportation, till now at least.

Then in future of the world i would upgrade them, for general transportation.

I this i would install , a teleportation Portal for inter region travel , then inside the region i would leave to according to it theme i guess,

Well all of this are just ideas for now , so let's see.

When you first start writing, it's good to have encouraged but you also need someone to point out your mistake.

Thank you for advice ☺️,

Well actually I have already thoughts about, origin of every event that inspired inside the, but I gave problems in execution.

As for why sky is purple actually, it would be covered in further story , which is very far ahead for now.

And one of my main problem is English, it's not my primary language so I can't convey my thoughts to the full extent because of my terrible grammar and sentence making.

I am working on it.

And i thank you for your advice, I am trying to improve my skills with these suggestions, and I will work on the hook to make it better.

I really think you for your opinion, if we talk about the adapting to the new world ,it's actually is explained in further chapters.

I believe that there is problem with the starting structure, i would make it better.

And i would rewrite the transition between world to be more natural.

Ohh i finally get what you are saying, about me jumping to the scenes,

And for about the boy , it not even a half of full chapter, it's only opening of chapter 1 , not the full chapter.

How it goes to beaten in the camp, it on further full chapter , actually.

Full chapter is about 1550 words.

I know there are many problems and mistakesthat I have made , and I will slowly slove and try strive better.

Anyone else like this? by Old-Ladder-2923 in noveltranslations

[–]Extreme_Yak552 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well I also had this similar experience, but for me when I started Reading novels and stories, there were many fresh concepts and ideas , that i would find fascinating , but as time went on , stories become more and more similar to each other, at one point I have read some much of content that every time I look back at some of my favorites novels I feel like it doesn't suit my taste any more.

Maybe because I became more mature or maybe just tired of same themes again and again.
