Novel Publishing Update #2

Hello Inheritors ^^ (May I call you that? I think it's a cute name.)

Here's a quick update on the status of my publishing journey. So that game plan is for me to finish this story on here (AFF) before doing any rereading/editing. Just so you know, this is only the FIRST ROUGH DRAFTThere are MANY changes to be made. One of them might be how many guardians there are (13 is a lot). They would all still appear within the storybut not all as the main characters. Character development for that many people can get repetitive to the reader. The rewriting process would take quite a long time, considering the fact that I wrote this when I was 15 years old. My writing has progressed tremendously since then, and I would like to make this the best it can be before I even attempt to publish it. Obviously I have already changed the names and such of the characters on my personal draft. Another thing, which is semi-obvious, is that all the characters will not be Asian. This is nothing to get up in arms about. But based on the context of where characters live, diversity is needed to make each character unique to their homelands. 

I recently had a meeting (and will have another soon) with my base team that is helping me with the story's development, and man it's really getting exciting! The characters are so incredible and my team has helped me make them even more unique! So I hope you are anticipating the future as much as I am. If you want to know the character names that I have so far, let me know and I'll make a blog post all about it. Thanks for being patient and helpful with me through this process! And one final note, as the conclusion of this story comes (hopefully by the middle of this year), if you could spread the word about the book that would be great ^^ Recommendations are the key way to help in printing and distributing. But of course, this is only if you really like the novel and would like to share it. That's it! See you in the next update, which will be tomorrow hopefully! (FYI this particular book may be ending in several chapters since its almost done - there will be three books - and I need to actually edit and add more chapters inbetween. Character development as well).

Oooooh the idea it self is really interesting, first of all We are all happy for you...publishing a book is a huge step to getting recognize, hmmm okay May I say I'm Quite Intrigued by the word "Diversity" , the character description you made in start of the story was flawless it's amazing honestly the details were enough to entice readers (who loves mythical - adventure or anyone who enjoys reading)to read the story and if you'll publish it into a book (and of course the changes made) I'll totally would love to grab myself a copy of it and see what new kind of magic it brings to my craving for literature. .. my only concern is, I know you said it won't be 13 main characters (and that's totally fine with me since 13 is already tricky to write) but hopefully the idea of all the areas/districts/sector of the land of Athosia and it's people to be included since that's what caught me the moment I subscribed to the story each one of that character description sparked my love for the story... however this is just a suggestion, I'm confident you already know what will float your boat. .. *throws heart*

Although i'm not entirely sure what book you are publishing -- good luck to you! It takes real courage to actually publish a book - less even think about publishing it.
Wishing you the best and I hope to see your book out in the markets soon :)
Would be interested on buying it if it reaches Australia.
