Fortunately, she is in a world with vampire, if she become one, she will recover from her blindness !
Thanks for the comment!
Maybe a bit over the top XD but completely serious. This is excellent work.
I have it set so I get notifications every time you post something. I’m definitely a fan.
A somewhat unrelated question. What is your hardest part in writing? For me it is avoiding the passive voice, of using "was" and "had" and the past tense. It can be a massive struggle at times to not use those words, especially "was" and keep the story more active. My mind tends to want to write things in the past. I really admire your writing a lot and am just curious where you find difficulty when writing, if anything. I also find dialogue somewhat difficult. I am working on chapter two and have a decent amount of dialogue coming up ... so procrastinating again even as I struggle to stamp out the word "was".
The hardest part, huh? I think it's the process of tweaking and proofreading the whole thing after the keyboard rage dies down. Writing itself is usually fairly easy, since I just bang my fingers against the keyboard while humming "Surfin' Bird" (true story, that). What comes later can be difficult, especially since I'm one of those people who don't like reading what they wrote. You have no idea how many typos I have to correct before I upload the set (think millions) - and how many I still let pass. At this point, I'm afraid of checking the previous sets typo-wise. They are always there. Like a plague.
I wouldn't guess you struggle with passive voice! The first chapter of your new story felt really dynamic so you definitely do a good job with that. As for dialogue, I find it the easiest when you just let it happen. Just write all the parts in a way you would say things - and deal with the tweaking them into the specific character's style later. I'm sure you already have your method though
I definitely agree with you on the last part: Alerik really gains a new perspective while travelling with his friends' offspring. It does give him the closure needed to forget about old wounds for sure. After all, he can see that his tainted, flawed former companions did not raise a murderous maniac
So, it appears logical that Saga gives her eyes for better understanding. She is always so vulnerable. I'm really glad, that she started to open her mind to Alerik
