Below I have linked the first chapter of a story that came to me in a dream. Set in the fictional city of Santa Josina, two girls are swept up in a battle between angels and demons. I wanted to post the synopsis and first chapter to get a feel for whether this idea is something readers would be interested in.
This lesson is going to be a little different as it’ll consist of more technical examples or demonstrations rather than the usual explanations. We will begin with a general overview and some statements on goals and focus, but for the most part, this lesson is going to focus on tools you can use for outlining.
No time for introductions, we’re getting right into the swing of things from where we left off from part one.
Our Orcs Are Different
The “Our Orcs Are Different” trope highlights that in fantasy media, orcs have become kind of a staple fictional race, sarcastically calling them “different” when in reality, the audience kind of already knows an orc when they see one.
New things I want to try to do: Edit and review other people's story Write more of my own stories Interact more on forums Be less lonely Take over the world.
JUST DO IT! MAKE YOUR DREAMS COME TRUE! I didn't just suddenly come out of my shell one day. I didn't start editing until one day I saw a person post to a forum that they needed help with a story, I didn't have anything pressing so I tried my hand at it. Follow what you want to do and don't let fear hold you back.
I have a story I'm writing for a friend that I can have you edit if you want the experience. I would suggest applying to be an editor at the Proofreaders Group as I think that's the editing group that gets the most traffic, so any previous work you have done helps.
