I've recently started typing up a book, having been given the inspiration from the death of another. Of course, this goes without saying who, as it's in my journal and what not, but anyways! This is my first time actually going into detail with writing a book and the first time submitting something on here since I've been a member since...a long...long time ago. XD
I'm a little nervous to actually submitting something, so bear with me. I'm new to the whole writing business, and I'm willing to accept criticizing on my work. In my opinion, I think it's not all that great, but I'm giving it my all. XP
Like it says in the title, this is merely a small preview of what I've gotten down so far. Note, this is an extremely small preview from the first chapter. I'm just about ready to start the fourth chapter on my book, as things are about to get interesting. So...leave your comments about it and tell me what you think of it so far! XD Tell me it's nice. Tell me it sucks. Tell me it's good but is in need of work, I don't care. X3 Give me your worst!

I admire your spirit! Alright, if you want honesty.... the best advice I can give you is reread the story as if it were being read to you by someone else. Is it pleasant to the ear? There's a little repetition in the verbiage and some of the descriptive approaches (the lead-in to the cave scene, the eggs as prisons) could use some revision and rebalancing. Good first draft!
I've had my eye on all of that for some time, and yet I have been procrastinating so much about it, that it would probably make the Gods themselves cry. XD I plan on actually going through everything I have so far and editing a whole lot of it. I'm positive at least half of what I got down already needs editing. XP
