Is there an audience for the book I'm writing? It's #cyberpunk with a dash of #queer, #solarpunk for a splash of hope, with a lot of #authoritariancorruption and #familialsecrecy, #betrayal, a little bit of love, and a lot of #progressive ideology.

I took a really long break. But I'm back to writing again. Fresh and kind of excited!

I would love some feedback on the following.

Also, I reverted my changes and am back to writing in third person, and am much happier.

I just switch to first person, and then decided yesterday I liked it better as third person...

It's been a min, I've started the second draft, (aka rewrite #1).

Had to rethink the entire narrative structure now that I had the story fleshed out.

I think I've got it now.

Last night I switched to Scrivener. My only concern is cross device sync. I use Gdrive, and scrivener likes Dropbox on iPad. Work arounds anyone?

I just finished my intro, which explains the effects that lead up to my manuscript, in a historical sense, and it feels almost prophetic and that scares me

The prologue has been rewritten. I feel good about it right now. We will see how I feel about it tomorrow.

The first draft felt more a sketch of my idea and kind of just mashing parts and ideas together. All that to say, the editing is turning out to be a massive rewrite.

So I started editing. And I have random post-it's with notes on what I need to add, back story elements, things to pull more of the readers investment into the story.

I think I've gotten to a point where I've forgotten what I wrote but I know the story. Can I edit now?

I just had the realization that my one manuscript should be broken up into 5 parts. I'm trying to cram too much into one...

Forcing myself to take a week off from my manuscript so I can edit with fresh eyes is the hardest thing. I keep thinking about it.

Just finished my character sketches, built from what I've written plus some added details that might not get mentioned, but help me to feel like they're more real...

I may have done things backwards. It written the first draft before creating character sheets and outlined in a timeline... Playing catch up now

I brought my manuscript to get bound to the local print shop today and everyone was amazed by the fact that I'd written a 344 page manuscript +

At 132k words, my first draft is complete. Wow.
Yesterday I was convinced I'd need to rewrite it all. Today I said, eff it, and finished it.

I am looking forward to editing.

Another chapter down. I've decided on one character surviving, and some unexpected deaths. Passing the torch kind of deaths... One down, how many more to go?

At 126k words I had to stop. Do I kill them? Or do I order them live. Someone has to die though...

I may be a weirdo. But I sent the first 5 chapters to my niece to read. She's an avid reader, great writer in her own right, and her feedback. Whoooooooo, I'm excited to work on editing now.

Am I weird?

Just shy of 124k words. I've been writing a chapter a night for about a month.

This chapter should be called: "How to kill a romance before it even begins."

Maybe I should mention, my characters are #indigenous, #asian, #black, #southasian, and of #celtic #european. I'm hoping that I do all of these cultures justice in my writing.

I'll be looking for #sensitivityreaders to help me ensure that I do.

What's the market like for queer character led stories? Would a lit agent be interested you think?

It's taking me longer to write these last chapters, endings are hard. I split one in half, so added a chapter. Looking at 5-6 more to go.
