Some round of edits · 5:06am Mar 8th, 2016
So, I've said that I would work on the latest chapter for Melody of the Heart. That is still true. At this moment, I believe I have my finished product for the chapter.
However, this is not the topic for this blog post. For the past month, I have been plagued with self-doubt that stemmed from a lack of planning over my story. Over the past month, I have come up with a few elements to enhance the lore, precisely future lore if need be, of the story and the planning of the story from this point onward. That self-doubt I had made me doubt my chapters and their coherence with each other.
So, tonight, I have made a few rounds of edits to the prologue, Chapter One and Two to try and tie their context a bit better. Bear in mind I have not reworked the entire chapters, so if there is a lack in continuity or context within those chapters, I would adore you for that much.
Onwards onto the edits, the prologue's changes were mainly in regards to Star Blaze's interaction with the secretary along with the destination point being changed to Neighagra Falls instead of the Hollow Shades (some planning and lore I have so far make the Hollow Shades currently untouchable by anything else in the story).
Chapter One's changes were made primarily in regards to the overuse of the word "foals" as the characters, as well as Melody, are not foals. They're almost pre-teen. Destination changed to Neighagra Falls and to a flower meadow within that geographical location. I have also changed the last part with Occento and Star Blaze to be from Melody's PoV only.
Chapter Two mostly remains the same except for some rounds of edits for some word usage, syntax and the such, as well as some clarification to try and tie in Melody's PoV from Chapter One to her PoV in Chapter Two.
That being said, I hope they all tie in together smoothly. If you find mistakes, kindly sent them to me in the form of a PM for this occasion only. Otherwise, I'll see you guys some other time when I update Chapter 16!
