Do You Want To Read A Movie?
Hello there! The Author is here for a self-review.
This is my first work and for me, for the person who is one of the most explicit examples of procrastination, to write 63 chapters so far is definitely a great deal. *congrats to myself*
Now, let's go back to the review itself.
Writing quality. First of all, I think writing in the language which is clearly not your mother tongue is really hard, and maybe, sometimes, my syntactic constructions can be a little bit strange, but still, they are understandable and grammatically correct. I don't have grammar mistakes (at least, I didn't find any), but the style is just the way it is. This version is my first draft, and I plan to do the editing after I finish the whole book. So take it easy and pay attention to the plot itself.
Story development. Like one of the readers said in the comment section - "It feels like I'm watching a movie.....it has all the ingredients of a hit one...." – I do try hard to make the story vivid and emotional. So be ready for the suspense. You will be puzzled with the answer to the question "who is the bad guy?"
Character design and world background – As far as I can see, my readers are still waving from one character to another, guessing who is the protagonist and who is the antagonist, who you can trust, and who you shouldn't. It means that I managed to achieve my goal. Can't wait to see how everyone will react when the truth will be revealed and all the masks will be taken off.
Stability of updates. To my mind, this point is crucial for translated novels, because they are completed already, and you always can hire more people to handle the translation and update as many chapters as you want (though mass releases are not welcomed by translation teams, because the longer you update, the more readers you attract, which means the more money you get). The same goes for premium original novels. They have a rule for daily updates with 2-3 chapters.
As you can see, my novel doesn't belong to any of these two categories. I don't have a strict schedule for updates, but I try to update daily. Because it helps me to keep the process of writing stable, and I'm very happy when new chapters are welcomed by my dear readers. It inspires a lot and gives the energy to write even more.
Sometimes, when I cannot update for a day or two (because of some obvious daily life reasons), I try to upload 2 or 3 chapters at once, to compensate for the delay. So I think my stability of updates is pretty good because this novel is not pre-written and you get chapters as soon as they are ready, like hotcakes straight from the oven.
This is the main points I wanted to share with you. If you are here, it means you are reading my loooong review, so thank you for your time and attention!
I will be glad if you dedicate your time to reading my novel and if it entertains you somehow, it would mean that I did something useful in my life.
Thank you for reading and all the best! Take care and may God bless you and your beloved ones. I believe, the family is the most important thing we have in this world. This work wouldn't be the way it is right now without the huge support from my family.
Thank you.
