    This is amazing. I’m working on my second fantasy novel right now and the insight your channel has provided me for every single element I was worried about is incredible. I’m sure this book will become a bestseller.

    I am so happy to see this. I am currently working on a dark fantasy novel, and I regret not doing it much sooner (especially at my age of 26). I am enjoying the process so far, currently writing chapter 2 of the book, there are 11 to 12 chapters in total intended.
    My book explores topics like childhood trauma and mental illness, among other things, with my protagonist

    That was an epic first few chapters.
    I found myself invested in what happened next in no time at all.

      Thanks dude! Great to meet a fellow Australian CZcamsr, even if you are 5000km away from where I am in Perth :). You look like you've got an awesome channel - I'll have to line up some of your videos as background music for my next writing session.

    You should try reading Frieren Beyond Journey's End it's not a masterpiece, but I see potential for this type of fantasy narrative .

    The first chapter was quite goodbut the Rovin chapter was super melodramatic. So many contrivances in that battle.

    Unlike someone else in the comment section, I do really enjoy audiobooks. I purchased your Audiobook option as a Late Backer. Am I correct to believe however, that the book isn't released until June?

      The Kickstarter offers an ebook which can be read on kindle. It will eventually be available on the Amazon store as well, but Kickstarter backers will get the book first.

      Yep - I think I've got about 95 chapters in the whole book, and it's roughly 165,000 words total.

    I had hoped there would have been some progression since Across the Broken Stars....
    While you preach a big game I see very little evidence of those preachings in your practice.
    The teen dram dialogue is especially grating .. "you take that back!"
    ...cringe....
