This has been a long transitional period for me, filled with various upheavals while I’m trying to keep steady on my feet. A new city, a new job, a new direction. Questioning my writing, my religion, my relationships, my identity. It feels like the ocean is rolling beneath me and I’m trying desperately to stay upright.
In the midst of turmoil, some solid ground. I have opened a Figment account (so much more user-friendly than Authonomy) and I have posted my completed novel for public perusal. I would recommend everyone having a look at it here if you’re so inclined.
That being said, I’m still struggling to stay afloat with writing the second novel in the series and trying to find representation for the first. Doubts keep filtering in my mind. Is the vampires and witches thing too cliched now? Is my protagonist someone that people will relate to? Am I presenting the archetypal epic journey in a unique and interesting way?
I’m always open to critiques. I’m open to change. It’s just I never know what will stay the same.
