Thanks to you as well! I understand the odds. I have a couple of income sources, so this writing is something that I'm doing as a passion project (am I using that correctly?). I don't really care if I make money. Just seems like something my brain wants me to do, and I'm psychologically and...

Thanks a ton for this reply! I suppose I always thought "ghost writing" was just a famous person paying somebody else to write an entire book so that the famous person could get the credit without putting forth any effort. I hadn't thought of it in the context of more sort of a partnership. And...

I'll write in quasi-bulletized format to make a long story slightly less long. I'm writing a story that I really feel has a lot going for it. It's a story that I know the broad outline to, but am excited to see where I take it. Let's say I have 70,000 words of book 1 in what I envision and...

Ah. As in "seat of your pants" writing, I presume?

Quick personal observation from a newbie: I already need to do some google searches for terms that are completely unfamiliar to me. First stop: "Pantser".

Hello, Red Angel. I'm new here as well, so perhaps a few newbies can huddle together for protection from the likely hordes of hazing juniors and seniors who will savage us with both harsh criticism and pointed personal jabs?

Hello, all. I'm here because I don't know where else to turn. I'm nearing the end of my 4th decade on this planet, and though I'm good at my job and I do well financially, I am always thinking about "what should I be doing that would genuinely make me happy?" I both love the fantasy genre...
