thank you! noted and will swap the chapters :)

thank you so much for your considerate reply! I think I will swap those two chapters. :) thank you.

Back in the weeds - so true! But you know, for me, if I feel like i'm back in the weeds - it is not ready... When I read the articles I published, I'm quite happy with them, albeit a few small things here and there. It is never the case with the long-form prose. So, I guess, it's not ready yet...

I think being sick of looking at it is also a good sign to stop. Either go for querying/self-publishing or shelve for a while and come back with a fresh mind.

I see. True, they keep finding something. But there is an end. I think it's important to find a good editor whom you trust and work with them to the end.

I think you are never, never, never ever done. The only way is to have an awesome editor who will look you in the eyes and say: "my friend, it is time to let go."

I have been changing the first chapter over and over.... rewriting, reshuffling.... I am posting a couple of paragraphs from two options... please, weigh in friends on what kept your attention more... thank you! Option 1: Sol felt sensation come back into his body, his every atom reemerging...

thank you, friend! I haven't been able to figure out how to post. It sends me in circles when I search for a way to do it. If you have a link to a good explanation, please send! Thank you!

My novel is new adult fantasy with sci-fi and fairytale elements. If someone has a full manuscript and needs to swap critique - let me know ✨🙏
