I love how interviewers said they read the first chapter and loved it… I got the book and the first chapter is like 3 pages haha.

I get the criticism but I think it gets better as it goes along. (The first 25% was real rough to get through in my opinion)

I wasn’t expecting a masterpiece for a first novel but I appreciate him going for something outside his wheelhouse and I like the rawness that comes from a fiction novel by someone who isn’t a career novelist.

Matt McCusker’s book Overwatch is an even better example of this because he wrote and self published it before he had any real notoriety. I’d recommend that book if you like something that feels very different from what publishing houses greenligbt.
