I’ve been working on a trilogy for about half a year. I have all three books outlined for my story. My first book is near 80k word count but is at its first draft stage. I have zero literary education. I just can weave a tail that is deep and masterful with lore and heart. Putting it to paper is difficult on account that my hand can’t keep up with my mind. My daughter has given her opinion and can see the promise of my work but is dismayed due to my third person omniscient approach. The majority of my work, I’d argue, is more third person deep than omniscient. I guess at its core what I’m struggling with is the idea of a fantastic story that I am not able to put to paper. Im not asking to disregard literary rule, just wish it would prioritize formula over joy of writing and reading. If that makes sense.
