Jefferson county Looking for connections. Very new here and she was all to expect -
Thanks for the comments! 🙂 I feel like that's my life as a caring and angry authoress at my characters at times! 🤷♀️🤣 Thanks for the comments! 🙂 Unfortunately for my brain and writing it definitely is! I'm guessing 15-20 to get us to the back two arcs of the stories. The first of those will probably be 15-20 chapters, and the last will be at least 9-12 plus an epilogue. That's all past chapter 126 that's already written! I figure given how little I've been able to write the past two months it'll be at least a year to finish this. We'll see! As of right now I don't know when I'll get into the headspace to write more. Real life is ridiculous sometimes! This I will confirm. Definite stress! Off the top of my head I can't think of story names. I'll try and go back and look at some point. It might have also been a Princess Pottypants story I'm thinking of... -

I think you know how much I support you from earlier in this thread, so, don't take this the wrong way at all but that comment just absolutely blows my mind. -

I’ve been lurking on this story a long while, but I know from experience that lurking without comment doesn’t help writers. I laughed my padded butt off at Lucy turning into a baby doll, breathed a sigh of genuine relief that Fiona - definitely on TeamWolfiona - saved Lucy from the lamia (who needs a permanent baby doll curse from Beth herself, so that she doesn’t hurt anyone else), and now I’m both eager and nervous to see how Avery knows the monstrum world. Honestly, though, there are a few grammatical errors, namely regarding the word after a spoken sentence. For example: “‘The ones for your kind, silly!’ She replied, smiling at me.” The word after a spoken sentence, unless performing an action, should never be capitalized, even after a quotation mark or exclamation point. ““The ones for your kind, silly!” she replied, smiling at me.” is the correct way to say this, and there’s a lot of those errors, too many to ignore. Unless a character is specifically performing an action and not speaking, you never capitalize the first word of a spoken sentence, even if the sentence ends in an exclamation point or a question mark. Also, you never use full-stops/periods at the end of a spoken sentence (for example: “You won’t ruin it.” She replied, squeezing my hand.”). Commas are always used instead of full-stops at the end of a spoken sentence, unless - again - someone is performing an action and not purely speaking. Hence, it should be: ““You won’t ruin it,” she replied, squeezing my hand.” The only other issue I have is more of a me-specific issue (which may not be an actual issue considering the scope of your story): you give us all of these fantastic characters and this unique living world, and I just want more. You have this whole world of human/monstrum interactions, and it just makes me wonder about the world behind it. Are there policing and governmental issues between both worlds? How many humans unknowingly or knowingly work alongside monstrum-kind? How does one handle the obvious age issues (i.e., humans living such shorter lives than most, if not all, monstrum)? I love the unique idea you’re doing, so don’t hesitate to make it yours and just run with it! There’s so many opportunities with something like this, and while I appreciate you making this Lucy’s story and having it grounded to her, there’s got to be so many opportunities to go into more. It just makes me eager to learn more about this world of yours, and wanting more than the taste you’ve given thus far. All that’s needed is a slight touch up with the grammatical issues I’ve mentioned, and you have yourself a solid story with a fantastic opportunity for further world-building. Much love, Jemma. -
