WELP! Here goes nothing. · 8:06am Jan 23rd, 2013
I'm in the process of formatting the first three chapters of Isaac's Storm to post here. They've been up for over a year on Fanfiction.net, but I wanted to re-write them before posting them here. However, in the last year I have not done so, and thus for now I'm posting the raw first edition of the story here. Expect bad paragraph spacing and bad story pacing, among other amateur mistakes. I started on the story when I was new to the fandom, as I've said, and thus the early chapters I've already written could use some work. I will be coming back later and putting the new, re-written versions up when I get them done.
Here's the thing though. I am posting the raw stories now because, this being the first fanfic I have ever written, I need feedback. I need people to rip my tale to shreds so that I can be the best writer I can possibly be in both re-writing and continuing my story. I need pre-readers and editors. I need a life. You folks can help me with some of these. Give me feedback on the three chapters I'm about to post after I write this here entry, and I'll start either re-writing the first three or working on chapter four - really, whichever I feel like. I have the whole story planned out in my head. It's going to be pretty epic, but it's going to be rather difficult to write, and could take upwards of a year. Or, rather, more, if I procrastinate. Plus I'm not that great at transferring ideas to words and stories, so please forgive me if the awesome story I had in my mind gets lost in translation, per se.
Instead of author's notes, I will likely provide a blog entry here every time I put up a chapter. Reason being, my notes can be somewhat... lengthy. Comment on these entries, on the story, or by PM if you want to offer critique or help or flaming or whatever else you feel the need to do after reading my train wreck of a tale!
